The book is a study of Middle English prepositions and adverbs with the prefix «be-» in prose texts. «Before, beyond, behind, beneath, between» and «betwixt» are analysed for the semantics, textual and dialectal distribution and frequency, synchronic and diachronic. The study draws on full texts from the «Innsbruck Corpus of Middle English Prose».
