Book Description
The future of English linguistics as envisaged by the editors of Topics in English Linguistics lies in empirical studies which integrate work in English linguistics into general and theoretical linguistics on the one hand, and comparative linguistics on the other. The TiEL series features volumes that present interesting new data and analyses, and above all fresh approaches that contribute to the overall aim of the series, which is to further outstanding research in English linguistics.
Subjectification, Intersubjectification and Grammaticalization
Author: Kristin Davidse

ISBN: 3110226103
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 456
Book Description
This volume aims to arrive at a fine-grained and grammar-based understanding of the notions of (inter-)subjectivity and (inter-)subjectification in their application to grammaticalization research. In terms of linguistic theory, position is taken vis-à-vis existing approaches to (inter-)subjectification which are either too narrow or too general by addressing two questions: (i) what is the relation between (inter-)subjectivity and pragmatics, and (ii) on what grounds can subjective and intersubjective meanings be distinguished? In the descriptive sections of the volume, these theoretical considerations are confronted with extensive analytical, and often also quantitative, study of empirical data mainly from English but also from Romance languages. The focus in these case studies is on the analytical and diachronic relations between subjectivity and intersubjectivity, with particular emphasis on the question how linguistic syntagms may shift towards the expression of meanings of which the hearer is an essential part. The domains covered include adverbials and modals, but also the noun phrase, to date a relatively under-researched area in grammaticalization studies. Together these three areas ensure broad verification of existing hypotheses about the relative order in which subjectification and intersubjectification take place. This volume is mainly of interest to researchers and graduate students with a special interest in subjectification, intersubjectification and grammaticalization, and with a general interest in language change. The volume will also be welcomed by functional linguists (in a broad sense), since it is the first to bring eclectic functionalists' reflections to bear so explicitly on grammaticalization.

Historical Linguistics 2003
Author: Michael D. Fortescue
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9781588115867
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
This volume consists of 19 papers presented at the 16th International Conference on Historical Linguistics, which was held in August 2003 in Copenhagen and drew the largest number of participants and the widest array of languages that this important biannual conference has ever had. As with previous volumes, the papers selected cover a wide range of subjects besides the core areas of historical linguistics, and this time include studies on ethnolinguistics, grammaticalisation, language contact, sociolinguistics, and typology. The individual languages treated include Brazilian Portuguese, Chukchi, Korean, Danish, English, German, Greek, Japanese, Kok-Paponk, Latin, Newar, Old Norse, Romanian, Seneca, Spanish, and Swedish. The volume reflects the state of the art both empirical and theoretical - in Historical Linguistics today, and shows the discipline to be as flourishing and capable of new advances as ever.

Filosofía. 1º Bachillerato
Author: BUGARÍN LAGO, ALEJANDRO
Publisher: Ediciones Paraninfo, S.A.
ISBN: 8428340676
Category : Philosophy
Languages : es
Pages : 354
Book Description
Este libro ha sido pensado como manual de consulta y trabajo para los alumnos que cursen la asignatura de Filosofía, de 1º de Bachillerato. En él se han recogido los contenidos del currículo de la legislación vigente. Siguiendo la organización propuesta en el currículo hemos estructurado el manual en cinco bloques temáticos: (1) El saber filosófico. (2) El conocimiento. (3) La realidad. (4) El ser humano desde la filosofía. (5) La racionalidad práctica. Cada uno de estos bloques temáticos, que va introducido por una ilustración y un texto pertinentes, incluye una o más unidades hasta completar un total de doce. Las unidades didácticas aparecen organizadas de la siguiente manera: • Al inicio de cada una aparece un texto representativo del contenido de esa unidad y que puede servir como introducción al tema. • A continuación aparece un apartado que hemos titulado «Reflexiones previas», cuya función es sumergir al alumnado en los problemas que deben tratarse (al mismo tiempo que puede servir de orientación al profesor para conocer lo que el alumno sabe o cree acerca de la materia). • Seguidamente se desarrollan los contenidos, que aparecen organizados en varios subapartados. Hemos tratado de hacer una exposición sistemática de los mismos. (Aun cuando, con frecuencia, recurramos a los grandes filósofos del pasado o actuales para presentarlos; de este modo el alumno se introduce, simultáneamente, en la historia de la filosofía). Para facilitar la asimilación de dichos contenidos hemos optado por varios tipos de información: a) Exposición de los contenidos propiamente dichos, que el alumnado debe asimilar. b) Cuadros con informaciones curiosas (cuyo objetivo es una mayor motivación del alumnado), o informaciones orientadas a la ampliación de conocimientos. c) Textos relacionados con el tema de filósofos o científicos (preferentemente los propuestos en los estándares de aprendizaje evaluables). d) Biografías de filósofos o científicos importantes. e) Esquemas, definiciones, actividades de reflexión. • Un último apartado de ideas fundamentales, ofrece una recapitulación de los contenidos de la unidad. • Al final de cada unidad aparecen varias páginas con actividades diversas (videoteca, conceptos para definir, textos para leer y comentar, temas para debatir y cuestiones para responder) que ayudarán a los alumnos a desarrollar ciertas actitudes y capacidades, y a asimilar los contenidos propuestos de un modo más activo. Se ha dado una orientación sistemática a todo el libro, usando, para ello, como hilo conductor, la reflexión sobre el ser humano, entendido como un ser libre y abierto al mundo, y presentando a la filosofía como un saber que trata de construir un proyecto global de vida humana. Igualmente, también hemos intentado familiarizar a los alumnos con la historia de la filosofía, recogiendo, en las unidades didácticas que era pertinente hacerlo, aquellas propuestas que esta disciplina ha elaborado a lo largo de la historia para dar solución a los problemas que se le han ido presentado.

Atypical predicate-argument relations
Author: Thierry Ruchot
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027266255
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
This book deals with atypical predicate-argument relations. Although the relations between predicates, especially verbal, and their arguments have been long studied, most studies are concerned with typical telic verbs in the past tense, indicative mood, active voice, with all arguments expressed. Recently, linguists have become interested in other types of predicate-argument relations displaying atypical properties, be they morphological or syntactic, in one language or cross-linguistically. The articles in this book investigate some of these: argument marking with some special groups of verbs, arguments not foreseen in the verb valency and contributed by the construction, verbs in idiomatic constructions, valency-changing operations, arguments in thetic sentences or in participle constructions etc. The authors work within different theoretical frameworks and on various languages, from more current languages like English, Spanish, French or German, to Hebrew or lamaholot, an Austronesian language.
