This article explores synchronic and diachronic aspects of anticausativization in Italian, focusing on variability in its morpho-syntactic encoding and the parameters determining it, both verb-related – templatic (reflecting the event structure template of verbs) as well as root/lexical (concerning the type of root and change encoded) – and argument-related, involving thematic (e.g., agentivity) and inherent (e.g., animacy) properties of verbal arguments.
