Abstract

This paper will be concerned with the distribution of Case marking in Russian

secondary predicates. I will particularly analyze Case alternations in simple

matrix clauses and control configurations. I account for these facts by

distinguishing NP-movement structures from the structures containing a null

pronominal. This general topic is often referred to as the Second Dative.

However, it is somewhat misleading because Dative Case marking happens to be

very unproductive in secondary predicates in Russian, with a more general

paradigm involving actually Instrumental Case.
