D'une complexité redoutable : les attributs prépositionnels en 'de'

Author

Abstract
This article examines whether the preposition 'de' in the predicate noun may be analyzed as a mark of the genitive in French. The genitive in French is identified on the basis of language internal arguments on the one hand and a comparison with Russian on the other hand. It is shown that only one type of prepositional predicates corresponds to a genitive in Russian. This type of PP stems from an adnominal modifier, which does not meet the internal criteria of the genitive. It is argued that its correspondence with a genitive in Russian is due to the intrinsic adnominal character of the genitive case. In contrast, adnominal complements become verbal when occurring in predicative position and 'de' has then an increased prepositional value.
