520			_aThis book proposes a unitary meaning for the Italian clitic si, including impersonals, passives, and reflexives. Si signals third-person participancy but makes no distinctions of number, gender, or case role. The analysis advances the Columbia School framework, attributing variety of interpretation largely to language use rather than to grammar.
