Infinitives
Susanne Wurmbrand
Mouton de Gruyter

Studies in Generative Grammar 55
2003
371
Infinitives: Restructuring and Clause Structure offers a detailed study of the clausal architecture of infinitival constructions providing a unified analysis of restructuring, control, modals, and raising. The book critically evaluates previous proposals from both syntactic and semantic perspectives and presents a new analysis incorporating many recent developments in generative linguistic theory. In addition to its theoretical contribution, Infinitives contains a detailed descriptive overview of a range of constructions, primarily from the Germanic languages and will thus not only be of value to generative linguists but will also serve as a general reference source for those interested in the Germanic languages.

Wittgensteins Neffe
Thomas Bernhard
Suhrkamp Verlag
other
2012
101
Mit seiner 1982 vorgelegten Arbeit über die Geschichte einer Freundschaft führt Bernhard seine Autobiographie, die Beschreibung seiner Kindheit und Jugend in fünf Bänden, weiter in die Jahre 1967 bis 1979. Bei einem Sanatoriumsaufenthalt vertiefte sich seine Freundschaft mit Paul Wittgenstein, die in leidenschaftlichen Diskussionen über Musik begonnen hatte. Paul Wittgenstein, der Neffe Ludwig Wittgensteins, maturierte am Theresianeum in Wien und studierte danach Mathematik. Seit seinem 35. Lebensjahr brach seine Nervenkrankheit immer wieder durch. Anfänglich finanziell sehr gut gesichert durch die Reichtümer einer der reichsten Familien Österreichs, verschenkte er sein Vermögen unbekümmert an Freunde und Arme, bis er selber in Armut dahinvegetierte. In seinen letzten Lebensjahren vereinsamte er mehr und mehr, nur noch mit seinem Freund Thomas Bernhard verbunden. Bernhards Notizen sind zum Bericht der Sterbegeschichte des Paul Wittgenstein geworden. Zwölf Jahre hindurch hatte er das Sterben seines Freundes beobachtet. Und durch diese Beobachtung hat sich auch die Selbstbeobachtung Thomas Bernhards verschärft – so daß durch den Porträtierten auch das Bild des Porträtisten starke Konturen gewinnt.

Agreement and Its Failures
Omer Preminger
The MIT Press
english
Linguistic Inquiry Monographs
1
2014
312
<P>In this book, Omer Preminger investigates how the obligatory nature of predicate-argument agreement is enforced by the grammar. Preminger argues that an empirically adequate theory of predicate-argument agreement requires recourse to an operation, whose obligatoriness is a grammatical primitive not reducible to representational properties, but whose successful culmination is not enforced by the grammar. </P><P>Preminger's argument counters contemporary approaches that find the obligatoriness of predicate-argument agreement enforced through representational means. The most prominent of these is Chomsky's "interpretability"-based proposal, in which the obligatoriness of predicate-argument agreement is enforced through derivational time bombs. Preminger presents an empirical argument against contemporary approaches that seek to derive the obligatory nature of predicate-argument agreement exclusively from <I>derivational time bombs</I>. He offers instead an alternative account based on the notion of <I>obligatory operations </I>better suited to the facts. The crucial data involves utterances that inescapably involve attempted-but-failed agreement and are nonetheless fully grammatical. Preminger combines a detailed empirical investigation of agreement phenomena in the Kichean (Mayan) languages, Zulu (Bantu), Basque, Icelandic, and French with an extensive and rigorous theoretical exploration of the far-reaching consequences of these data. The result is a novel proposal that has profound implications for the formalism that the theory of grammar uses to derive obligatory processes and properties. </P>

The average contemporary English speaker knows 50,000 words. Yet stripped down to its origins, this apparently huge vocabulary is in reality much smaller, derived from Latin, French and the Germanic languages. It is estimated that every year, 800 neologisms are added to the English language: acronyms (nimby), blended words (motel), and those taken from foreign languages (savoir-faire). Laid out in an A-Z format with detailed cross references, and written in a style that is both authoritative and accessible, Word Origins is a valuable historical guide to the English language.

Introducing English Grammar
David J. Young
english
1984
128
Introducing English Grammar provides a basic grounding in English grammar, without going into too much detail or theory, and will lay the foundation for further grammatical studies. David Young presents English grammar in a coherent and lively way. He dispels the popular notion among students that grammar is simply a set of dreary rules and argues for the importance of grammar in describing the structure and function of language itself. Exercises are provided at the end of each chapter and the book includes integrated diagrams and a glossary of technical terms at the back of the book.

ABC Etymological Dictionary of Old Chinese
Axel Schuessler
University of Hawaii Press
english
ABC Chinese Dictionary Series
Bilingual
2006
679
This is the first genuine etymological dictionary of Old Chinese written in any language. As such, it constitutes a milestone in research on the evolution of the Sinitic language group. Whereas previous studies have emphasized the structure of the Chinese characters, this pathbreaking dictionary places primary emphasis on the sounds and meanings of Sinitic roots. Based on more than three decades of intensive investigation in primary and secondary sources, this completely new dictionary places Old Chinese squarely within the Sino-Tibetan language family (including close consideration of numerous Tiberto-Burman languages), while paying due regard to other language families such as Austroasiatic, Miao-Yao (Hmong-Mien), and Kam-Tai.<P>Designed for use by nonspecialists and specialists alike, the dictionary is highly accessible, being arranged in alphabetical order and possessed of numerous innovative lexicographical features. Each entry offers one or more possible etymologies as well as reconstructed pronunciations and other relevant data. Words that are morphologically related are grouped together into ''word families'' that attempt to make explicit the derivational or other etymological processes that relate them. The dictionary is preceded by a substantive and significant introduction that outlines the author’s views on the linguistic position of Chinese within Asia and details the phonological and morphological properties, to the degree they are known, of the earliest stages of the Chinese language and its ancestor. This introduction, because it both summaries and synthesizes earlier work and makes several original contributions, functions as a useful reference work all on its own. <P>The ABC Etymological Dictionary of Old Chinese is a monumental achievement in the history of Chinese linguistics, offering many new hypotheses and systematically evaluating and incorporating earlier scholarship. It will be warmly welcomed by scholars in a wide variety of China- and Asia-related fields, including early Chinese language, literature, culture, and thought as well as the broader cultural-linguistic landscape of prehistorical East and Southeast Asia.

Latino language and literacy in ethnolinguistic Chicago
Marcia Farr
Lawrence Erlbaum Associates
english
1
2005
412
This volume - along with its companion Ethnolinguistic Chicago: Language and Literacy in the City's Neighborhoods - fills an important gap in research on Chicago and, more generally, on language use in globalized metropolitan areas. Often cited as a quintessential American city, Chicago is, and always has been, a city of immigrants. It is one of the most linguistically diverse cities in the United States and home to one of the largest and most diverse Latino communities. Although language is unquestionably central to social identity, and Chicago has been well studied by scholars interested in ethnicity, until now no one has focused - as do the contributors to these volumes - on the related issues of language and ethnicity.Latino Language and Literacy in Ethnolinguistic Chicago includes:*ethnographic studies based in home settings that focus on ways of speaking and literacy practices;*studies that explore oral language use and literacy practices in school contexts; and*studies based in community spaces in various neighborhoods.It offers a rich set of portraits emphasizing language use as centrally related to ethnic, class, or gender identities. As such, it is relevant for anthropologists, sociologists, linguists, historians, educators and educational researchers, and others whose concerns require an understanding of "ground-level" phenomena relevant to contemporary social issues, and as a text for courses in these areas.

Tense across Languages
Renate Musan, Monika Rathert
Walter de Gruyter
english
Linguistische Arbeiten 541
2011
This book addresses recent developments in the study of tense from a cross-paradigm and cross-linguistic point of view. Leading international scholars explore challenging ideas about tense at the interfaces between semantics and syntax as well as syntax and morphology. The book is divided into three main subsections: 1) Tense in tenseless languages; 2) Tense, mood, and modality, and 3) Descriptive approaches to some tense phenonema. Although time is a universal dimension of the human experience, some languages encode reference to time without any grammatical tense morphology of the verb. Some of these exceptional “tenseless” languages are investigated in this volume: Kalaallisut, Paraguayan Guaraní and Movima. Modal verbs are polyfunctional in the sense that they express both tense and modality. In this volume, an untypical modal is analyzed, a modal analysis of imperatives is argued for, and sentential mood, which is closely related to modality, is analyzed. It is always interesting to look at the expression of tense in understudied languages, which is done here for Scottish Gaelic, Austronesian Rukai and German dialects. The volume can be used for graduate and undergraduate level teaching.

Die Poggenpuhls
Theodor Fontane
(Privatkopie)
other
1896
<p>Seit dem ruhmreichen Schlachtentod des Majors wohnt die Witwe Albertine Pogge von Poggenpuhl mit ihren drei Töchtern in einer respektablen Berliner Gegend, aber in ärmlichen Verhältnissen. Doch der berühmte Name verpflichtet, auch wenn der Mangel inzwischen überall durchscheint und die Interessen der Jugend notgedrungen ganz andere sind. Die Zeit der Heldentaten liegt zurück, selbst das Ölbild eines kämpfenden Ahnen hält nicht mehr an der Wand, dafür jagen Töchter und Söhne den trügerischen Bildern von Glück und Liebe, Wohlstand und Sicherheit nach. Leo, der jüngste Sproß und Tunichtgut der Familie, schmiedet zwar Schlachtpläne, doch die beziehen sich auf Abendunterhaltungen und schmackhaftes Essen. Sein Schwadronieren über Gott und die Welt, vor allem aber über die Pfade zum Goldenen Kalb ist von umwerfender Komik. Sie alle spielen ihre Rolle, und jeder meint das Heft noch in der Hand zu haben. Vorzügliche Textdarbietung und umfassender Kommentar sind die Charakteristika auch dieses Bandes der Großen Brandenburger Ausgabe, für den Gabriele Radecke bisher unbekanntes Archivmaterial nutzen konnte. "An den ›Poggenpuhls‹ habe ich, über Erwarten, viel Freude. Daß man dies Nichts, das es ist, um seiner Form willen so liebenswürdig anerkennt, erfüllt mich mit großen Hoffnungen, nicht für mich, aber für unsre literarische Zukunft." </p>

Analytical Philosophy of Action
Arthur C. Danto
Cambridge University Press
english
1973
238
A study of the philosophical problems associated with the concept of action. Professor Danto is concerned to isolate logically the notion of a 'basic action' and to examine the way in which context and intention, for example, can convert physiological movements into significant actions. He finds many suggestive parallels between the concepts - the logical architecture - of action and cognition and in developing this theme he becomes involved in and proposes new approaches to various long-standing problems connected with causality, determinism and materialism. As in his earlier books, Analytical Philosophy of History and Analytical Philosophy of Knowledge, Professor Danto places the discussion in a broad historical and philosophical perspective and brings to it a wide reading and an unusual range of interests. He is always prepared to venture novel ideas to stimulate further debate and research and the book as a whole is presented as an original contribution to a subject which is attracting increasing attention from philosophers and from psychologists with an interest in the conceptual assumptions behind their work.

Clause Structure
Elly van Gelderen
Cambridge University Press

Key Topics in Syntax
1
2013
252
Clause structure is the most widely-studied phenomenon within syntactic theory, because it refers to how words and phrases are embedded within a sentence, their relationships to each other within a sentence, and ultimately, how sentences are layered and represented in the human brain. This volume presents a clear and up-to-date overview of the Minimalist Program, synthesizes the most important research findings, and explores the major shifts in generative syntax. As an accessible topic book, it includes chapters on framework, the clause in general, and the semantic, grammatical and pragmatic layers. Designed for graduate students and researchers interested in syntactic theory, this book includes a range of examples taken from data acquisition, typology and language change, alongside discussion questions, helpful suggestions for further reading and a useful glossary.

Simplicity in Generative Morphology
Harry Bochner
De Gruyter Mouton
english
Publications in Language Sciences 37
1992
Simplicity in generative morphology (SiGM) is an important and thought-provoking contribution to post-morphemic morphological theory. Bochner’s principal objective is a critical examination of the most fundamental assumptions underlying current research in morphology: as his discussion unfolds, he motivates a novel system of assumptions which he terms Lexical Relatedness Morphology (LRM), whose theoretical antecedents include the work of Ray Jackendoff (1975) and Mark Aronoff (1976).

Tiny Publics: A Theory of Group Action and Culture
Gary Alan Fine
Russell Sage Foundation
english
Russell Sage Foundation Series on Trust
2012
236
If all politics is local, then so is almost everything else, argues sociologist Gary Alan Fine. We organize our lives by relying on those closest to us—family members, friends, work colleagues, team mates, and other intimates—to create meaning and order. In this thoughtful and wide-ranging book, Fine argues that the basic building blocks of society itself are forged within the boundaries of such small groups, the "tiny publics" necessary for a robust, functioning social order at all levels. Action, meaning, authority, inequality, organization, and institutions all have their roots in small groups. Yet for the past twenty-five years social scientists have tended to ignore the power of groups in favor of an emphasis on organizations, societies, or individuals. Based on over thirty-five years of Fine's own ethnographic research across an array of small groups, <I>Tiny Publics</I> presents a compelling new theory of the pivotal role of small groups in organizing social life.</p><p>No social system can thrive without flourishing small groups. They provide havens in an impersonal world, where faceless organizations become humanized. Taking examples from such diverse worlds as Little League baseball teams, restaurant workers, high school debate teams, weather forecasters, and political volunteers, Fine demonstrates how each group has its own unique culture, or <I>idioculture</I>—the system of knowledge, beliefs, behavior, and customs that define and hold a group together. With their dense network of relationships, groups serve as important sources of social and cultural capital for their members. The apparently innocuous jokes, rituals, and nicknames prevalent within Little League baseball teams help establish how teams function internally and how they compete with other teams. Small groups also provide a platform for their members to engage in broader social discourse and a supportive environment to begin effecting change in larger institutions. In his studies of mushroom collectors and high school debate teams, Fine demonstrates the importance of stories that group members tell each other about their successes and frustrations in fostering a strong sense of social cohesion. And Fine shows how the personal commitment political volunteers bring to their efforts is reinforced by the close-knit nature of their work, which in turn has the power to change larger groups and institutions. In this way, the actions and debates begun in small groups can eventually radiate outward to affect every level of society.</p><p>Fine convincingly demonstrates how small groups provide fertile ground for the seeds of civic engagement. Outcomes often attributed to large-scale social forces originate within such small-scale domains. Employing rich insights from both sociology and social psychology, as well as vivid examples from a revealing array of real-work groups, <I>Tiny Publics</I> provides a compelling examination of the importance of small groups and of the rich vitality they bring to social life.

¿Es posible —nosotros nos preguntamos— que se pueda pedir más de Goethe, después de todo lo que dio? Con Weimar o sin Weimar, pensamos que nada más podría habernos dado. El hecho de que ahora se llore por lo que pudiera haber sido, no es sino señal de lo mucho que se le exige a Goethe, pues como sucede con la obra de todos los grandes hombres, también la suya nos sabe a poco. Ni Weimar tuvo la culpa, ni Goethe se distrajo. Le sucedía como a Leonardo da Vinci, cuyo genio múltiple también puede inducirnos a pensar si realmente aquella de pintor fue su vocación y, de serlo, si fue un mal que hiciera también otras cosas. Descollaron tanto en otras actividades que siempre puede quedar la duda de si hubieran sido más dedicándose por entero a una de ellas.

<span>This volume is the first comprehensive handbook of Japanese phonetics and phonology describing the basic phonetic and phonological structures of modern Japanese with main focus on standard Tokyo Japanese. Its primary goal is to provide a comprehensive overview and descriptive generalizations of major phonetic and phonological phenomena in modern Japanese by reviewing important studies in the fields over the past century. It also presents a summary of interesting questions that remain unsolved in the literature. The volume consists of eighteen chapters in addition to an introduction to the whole volume. In addition to providing descriptive generalizations of empirical phonetic/phonological facts, this volume also aims to give an overview of major phonological theories including, but not restricted to, traditional generative phonology, lexical phonology, prosodic morphology, intonational phonology, and the more recent Optimality Theory. It also touches on theories of speech perception and production. This book serves as a comprehensive guide to Japanese phonetics and phonology for all interested in linguistics and speech sciences.</span>

Faust the Theologian
Jaroslav Pelikan
Yale University Press
english
New edition
1997
158
<span>In this erudite and beautifully written book, an eminent scholar meditates on the theological implications of Goethe's&nbsp;</span><i>Faust</i><span>. Jaroslav Pelikan reflects on Goethe's statement that he was a pantheist when it came to science, a polytheist in art, and a monotheist in ethics, and he uses it for the first time to analyze Faust's development as a theologian. By so doing, Pelikan enables us to see Goethe's masterpiece in a surprising new light.</span><br><br><span>Pelikan begins by discussing Faust's role as natural scientist or pantheist. He examines Faust's disenchantment with traditional knowledge, considers his interests in geology, oceanography, and optics, and analyzes his perception of nature as a realm inspirited throughout by a single unifying Power. Pelikan next follows Faust on his journeys to the two Walpurgis Nights, where he shows how Faust reveals his delight in the polytheistic extravaganzas of Germanic and especially of Greek mythology. Finally Pelikan describes the operatic finale of the book, where Faust's spirit is drawn upward to salvation by the Eternal Feminine, and he argues that this marks Faust's evolution into moral philosopher and monotheist. Pelikan's analysis thus reveals thematic unities and a dialectical development of Faust's character that have been unnoticed heretofore.</span>

Die Geschichte eines ungeheuren Jahres – der internationale Bestseller jetzt als hochwertiges Taschenbuch! »Ich konnte nicht mehr aufhören zu lesen – Illies' Geschichten sind einfach großartig.« Ferdinand von Schirach Florian Illies entfaltet virtuos ein historisches Panorama. 1913: Es ist das eine Jahr, in dem unsere Gegenwart begann. In Literatur, Kunst und Musik werden die Extreme ausgereizt, als gäbe es kein Morgen. Zwischen Paris und Moskau, zwischen London, Berlin und Venedig begegnen wir zahllosen Künstlern, deren Schaffen unsere Welt auf Dauer prägte. Man kokst, trinkt, ätzt, hasst, schreibt, malt, zieht sich gegenseitig an und stößt sich ab, liebt und verflucht sich. Es ist ein Jahr, in dem alles möglich scheint. Und doch wohnt dem gleißenden Anfang das Ahnen des Verfalles inne. Literatur, Kunst und Musik wussten schon 1913, dass die Menschheit ihre Unschuld verloren hatte. Florian Illies lässt dieses eine Jahr, einen Moment höchster Blüte und zugleich ein Hochamt des Unterganges, in einem grandiosen Panorama lebendig werden.

An Introduction to Language and Linguistics
Ralph W. Fasold, Jeff Connor-Linton
Cambridge University Press
english
2
2014
555
A clear and up-to-date introduction to linguistics. This best-selling textbook addresses the full scope of language, from the traditional subjects of structural linguistics (relating to sound, form, meaning and language change) to the more specialised subjects of contextual linguistics (including discourse, dialect variation, language and culture, and the politics of language). There are also separate chapters on language and the brain, computational linguistics, writing, and first and second language learning. Extensively classroom-tested, this second edition has been revised to further support student learning, with numerous new examples, exercises and textboxes to model and contextualise key concepts. Updated throughout to incorporate contemporary issues and events, it includes worked examples of phonological analyses and multiple examples of a variety of World Englishes. A rich collection of online resources completes the learning package.

Soldier's Pay
William Faulkner
Random House
other
A group of soldiers travel by train across the United States in the aftermath of the First World War. One of them is horribly scarred, blind and almost entirely mute. Moved by his condition, a few civilian fellow travellers decided to see him home to Georgia, to a family who believed him dead, and a fiancée who grew tired of waiting. Faulkner's first novel deals powerfully with lives blighted by war.

On Understanding Grammar
Talmy Givón
John Benjamins Publishing Company
english
Revised edition.
2018
In his foreword to the original edition of this classic of functionalism, typology and diachrony, Dwight Bolinger wrote: "I foresee it as one of the truly prizes statements of our current knowledge?a book about understanding done with deep understanding? of language and its place in Nature and in the nature of humankind? The book is rich in insights, even for those who have been with linguistics for a long time. And<span> beginners could be thankful for having it as a starting point, from which so many past mistakes have been shed". Thoroughly revised, corrected and updated, 'On Understanding Grammar' remains, as its author intended it in 1979, a book about trying to make sense of human language and of doing linguistics. Language is considered here from multiple perspectives, intersecting with cognition and communication, typology and universals, grammaticalization, development and evolution. Within such a broad cross-disciplinary context, grammar is viewed as an automated, structured language-processing device, assembled through evolution, diachrony and use. Cross-language diversity is not arbitrary, but rather is tightly constrained and adaptively motivated, with the balance between universality and diversity mediated through development, be it evolutionary or diachronic. The book's take on language harkens back to the works of illustrious antecedents such as F. Bopp, W. von Humbold, H. Paul, A. Meillet, O. Jespersen and G. Zipf, offering a coherent alternative to the methodological and theoretical structures of Saussure, Bloomfield and Chomsky.0.</span> <span>&nbsp;<span>Read more...</span></span>

The Dravidian Languages
Sanford B. Steever
Routledge

Routledge Language Family Descriptions
1998
464
The Dravidian language family is the world's fourth largest with over 175 million speakers across South Asia from Pakistan to Nepal, from Bangladesh to Sri Lanka as well as having communities in Malaysia, North America and the UK. Four of the languages, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Telugu are official national languages and the Dravidian family has had a rich literary and cultural influence.<BR> This authoritative reference source provides unique descriptions of 12 of these languages, covering their historical development alongside discussions of their specialised linguistic structures and features. Each chapter combines modern linguistic theory with traditional historical linguistics and a uniform structure allows for easy typological comparison between the individual languages. Two further chapters provide general information about the language family - the introduction, which covers the history, cultural implications and linguistic background, and a separate article on Dravidian writing systems.<BR> This volume includes languages from all 4 of the Dravidian family's subgroupings: South Dravidian e.g. Tamil, Kannada; South Central Dravidian e.g. Telugu, Konda; Central Dravidian e.g. Kolami; North Dravidian e.g. Brahui, Malto.<BR> Written by a team of expert contributors, many of whom are based in Asia, each language chapter offers a detailed analysis of phonology, morphology, syntax and followed by a list of the most relevant further reading to aid the independent scholar.<BR> <EM>The Dravidian Languages</EM> will be invaluable to students and researchers within linguistics and will also be of interest to readers in the fields of comparative literature, South Asian studies and Oriental studies.

This volume contains new research on the lexicon and its relation to other aspects of linguistics. These essays put forth empirical arguments to claim that specific theoretical assumptions concerning the lexicon play a crucial role in resolving problems pertaining to other components of grammar. Topics include: syntactic/semantic interface in the areas of aspect, argument structure, and thematic roles; lexicon-based accounts of quirky case, anaphora, and control; the boundary between the lexicon and syntax in the domains of sentence comprehension and nominal compounding; and the possibility of extending the concept of blocking beyond the traditional lexicon. Ivan Sag is a professor of linguistics at Stanford University. Anna Szabolcsi is an associate professor of linglustics at UCLA.

The Interplay of Morphology and Phonology
Sharon Inkelas
Oxford University Press
english
Oxford Surveys in Syntax & Morphology
2014
368
This book presents a phenomenon-oriented survey of the interaction between phonology and morphology. It examines the ways in which morphology, i.e. word formation, demonstrates sensitivity to phonological information and how phonological patterns can be sensitive to morphology. Chapters focus on morphologically conditioned phonology, process morphology, prosodic templates, reduplication, infixation, phonology-morphology interleaving effects, prosodic-morphological mismatches, ineffability, and other cases of phonology-morphology interaction. The overview discusses the relevance of a variety of phenomena for theoretical issues in the field. These include the debate over item-based vs. realizational approaches to morphology; the question of whether cyclic effects can be subsumed under paradigmatic effects; whether reduplication is phonological copying or morphological doubling; whether infixation and suppletive allomorphy are phonologically optimizing, and more. The book is intended to be used in graduate or advanced undergraduate courses or as a reference for those pursuing individual topics in the phonology-morphology interface.

Morphology and its Interfaces

Linguistik Aktuell/Linguistics Today, 178
2011

One of the most striking trends across linguistic research in recent years has been the examination of the interfaces between the various subcomponents of the language faculty. Yet, approaches to these interfaces across different theoretical frameworks differ substantially. This volume pulls together research into Morphology and its interfaces from researchers employing a variety of different theoretical and methodological perspectives: Morphology is a diverse field, and rather than aiming to collect works sharing a particular approach or framework of assumptions, this collection instead captures the diversity and provides an overview of the state of the research field while also addressing particular empirical phenomena with up-to-date analyses. The articles collected provide case studies from a diverse variety of languages revealing properties of the interfaces that morphology shares with syntax, semantics, phonology, and the lexicon, while the volume's inclusive cross-theoretical approach will serve to introduce readers to the findings of alternative frameworks and methodologies.

Wh-Scope Marking

english
Linguistik Aktuell/Linguistics Today, 37
2000

This volume is the first comprehensive overview of the syntax and semantics of <i>wh</i>-scope marking. <i>Wh</i>-scope marking constructions have recently received a lot of attention; their very existence and their intricate properties have important consequences for syntax, semantics, and the syntax–semantics interface (e.g., with respect to the <i>wh</i>-criterion, the <i>wh</i>-movement parameter, feature checking, the theory of locality, the interpretation of <i>wh</i>-phrases and <i>why</i>-chains, and the nature of LF). The fifteen contributions share the basic assumptions of the Chomskyan approach to syntax and the model-theoretic approach to semantics; they address a variety of languages (among them German, Hindi, Hungarian, English, Frisian, Kikuyu, and Malay). A recurrent theme in all articles is whether <i>wh</i>-scope marking should be analyzed in terms of a direct, indirect, or mixed dependency. The wealth of cross-linguistic empirical evidence and the theory-independent relevance of the conclusions should make this book the ultimate source of information on wh-scope marking for years to come.

A Grammar of Mongsen Ao

A Grammar of Mongsen Ao, the result of the authors fieldwork over a ten-year period, presents the first comprehensive grammatical description of a language spoken in Nagaland, north-east India. The languages of this region remain under-documented for a number of historical reasons. During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the widespread cultural practice of head-hunting discouraged outsiders from entering the Naga Hills. Shortly after Indian independence in 1947, an armed rebellion by Naga separatists and a government policy of restricting access to the troubled area ensured that Nagaland remained a difficult place to conduct research. In this context, A Grammar of Mongsen Ao offers valuable new insights into the structure of a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in a linguistically little-known region of the world. The grammatical analysis documents all the functional domains of the language and includes four glossed and translated texts, the latter being of interest to anthropologists studying folklore. Mongsen Ao is a highly agglutinating, mostly suffixing language with predominantly dependent-marking characteristics. Its grammar demonstrates a number of typologically interesting features that are described in detail in the book. Among these is an unusual case marking system in which grammatical marking is motivated by semantic and pragmatic factors, and a rich verbal morphology that produces elaborate sequences of agglutinative suffixes. Grammaticalisation processes are also discussed where relevant, thereby extending the appeal of the book to linguists with interests in grammaticalisation theory. This book will be of value to any linguist seeking to clarify genetic relationships within the Tibeto-Burman family, and it will serve more broadly as a reference grammar for typologists interested in the typological feature

Mind Design and Minimal Syntax
Wolfram Hinzen
Oxford University Press, USA
english
2006
314
This book introduces generative grammar as an area of study and asks what it tells us about the human mind. Wolfram Hinzen lays the foundation for the unification of modern generative linguistics with the philosophies of mind and language. He introduces Chomsky's program of a ''minimalist'' syntax as a novel explanatory vision of the human mind. He explains how the Minimalist Program originated in work in cognitive science, biology, linguistics, and philosophy, and examines its implications for work in these fields. He considers the way the human mind is designed when seen as an arrangement of structural patterns in nature, and argues that its design is the product not so much of adaptive evolutionary history as of principles and processes that are ahistorical and internalist in character. Linguistic meaning, he suggests, arises in the mind as a consequence of structures emerging on formal rather than functional grounds. From this he substantiates an unexpected and deeply unfashionable notion of human nature. Clearly written in nontechnical language and assuming a limited knowledge of the fields it examines and links, <em>Minimal Mind Design</em> will appeal to a wide range of scholars in linguistics, philosophy, and cognitive science. It also provides an exceptionally clear insight into the nature and aims of Chomsky's Minimalist Program.
