On the Agent Profile in the Passive Voice
Abstract
The modulation of the relationship between the "downstream" subject of passive constructions and the upstream
participant, expressed by an oblique, is a function of the parameters continuity/discontinuity and
substantiality/circumstantiality. The preposition used is revealing how the two axes combine. Por 'by' differs
from de 'of, con 'with' and en 'in', in that it yields a discontinuous yet substantial view of the relational profile.
The discourse orientation of the agent's "conditioning" intervention does not only vary according to the kind of
passive construction and the kind of entity denoted by the oblique, but also crucially hinges on the semantic
category of the verb.
