This paper traces the semantic development of the English absolute construction from Old to Present-day English on the basis of extensive corpus data.

Th…
Why is there a Present-Day English absolute
This paper examines the divergent evolutions of the Absolute Construction (AC) in the history of the Germanic languages, with a focus on English and Dutch, and provides an explanation of why only the English AC retained its frequency and productivity rate. Three language-internal factors are appealed to in order to account for this divergence: (i) increased with-augmentation of ACs results in fuzzy boundaries with the more frequently used gerunds…
