Les localisateurs dans les constructions existentielles : Approche comparee en espagnol, en francais et en italien

This book presents a comparative study of the locative constituents used in existential constructions: ‘il y a’ in French, ‘hay’ in Spanish, and ‘c’è’ in Italian.

The first part discusses their role from a morphological, discursive, semantic, and syntactic point of view.

The second part analyzes the syntactic and discursive behavior of different semantic types of locatives in a large textual corpus.
