The aim of this thesis is to map the historical development of the modern Czech secondary preposition kvůli, which denotes causality and is complemented by a dative NP in standard language and by a genitive case in certain dialects of North Moravia. Its development can be traced back to the Old Czech benefactive prepositional phrase (PP) k vóli/k vuoli (literally 'to/toward will'), which was used as an adverbial of reason or goal of the event denoted by the predicate, with respective meanings 'according to sb's will', or 'to sb's satisfaction'.

Adopting the approach of Construction Grammar (Fillmore, 1988, 1989; Fried & Östmann, 2004) and drawing on findings from grammaticalization research, historical material spanning the Old Czech, Middle Czech and Modern Czech period is analysed, paying attention to individual contextual features that enabled the changes leading to the modern prepositional use. Through a series of contextually conditioned and interdependent semantic, syntactic, morphosyntactic, and phonological shifts, the expression gradually...
