In this episode of the Biblical Languages Podcast, Kevin Grasso interviews Keren Dubnov on the semantics of locative verbs in biblical Hebrew.
Keren Dubnov has a PhD in Linguistics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. She is a teacher in Hebrew Linguistics at the David Yellin Academic College of Education in Jerusalem. She worked as a scientific secretary at the Academy of the Hebrew Language for many years. Her main specialty is pre-modern and modern Hebrew grammar, including its biblical sources.
This episode is also a tribute to Edit Doron and her work. From her website: "Prof. Edit Doron, a pioneering researcher and leader in the field of theoretical and Semitic Linguistics, passed away, just before she turned 68, having been ill with cancer for several years."
Here's a snapshot of what you can expect in this conversation:
- What are locative verbs and what is locative alternation in biblical Hebrew
- The two classes of locative verbs and how arguments are lexicalized in them
- The difference between a verb-framed language and a satellite-framed language
- How the semantics of prepositions works within differently framed languages
- Examples of how locative verbs, locative alternation, and prepositions work in biblical Hebrew
- And more!
