Content:
From a typological perspective, auxiliary selection - the alternation between have and be in participle constructions - presents both striking regularities and differences. The papers presented in this volume describe and explain this variation on the basis of synchronic and diachronic evidence from a multitude of European languages. The volume is thus of high relevance to students of auxiliary selection, and morphosyntactic variation in general.
