Peripheries: Syntactic Edges and Their Effects
ISBN: 9781402019081 / Angielski / Twarda / 448 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The syntactic periphery has become one of the most important areas of research in syntactic theory in recent years, due to the emergence of new research programmes initiated by Rizzi, Kayne and Chomsky. However research has concentrated on the empirical nature of clausal peripheries. The purpose of this volume is to explore the question of whether the notion of periphery has any real theoretical bite. An important consensus emerging from the volume is that the edges of certain syntactic expressions appear to be the locus of the connection between phrase structure, prosody, and information...

The book answers questions such as: How valid is the notion of a pidgin-creole-postcreole life cycle? Why are many features of pidgins and creoles simple in formal terms compared to other languages? And what is the origin of the grammatical innovations in expanded pidgins and creoles - linguistic universals, conventional language change, the...

Das Thema Sprache wird in diesem Band von Sprachwissenschaftlerinnen und Sprachwissenschaftlern fur an Sprache Interessierte am Beispiel gesamtgesellschaftlich relevanter Themen und Forschungsrichtungen vorgestellt. Ausgangspunkt ist die Frage, inwiefern Sprache als vermeintlich neutrales Medium Sachverhalte und Gegenstande der Wirklichkeit zu reprasentieren vermag.

Degrammaticalization
ISBN: 9780199207930 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Grammaticalization is a well-attested process of linguistic change in which a lexical item becomes a function word, which may be further reduced to a clitic or affix. Proponents of the universality of grammaticalization have usually argued that it is unidirectional and have thus found it a useful tool in linguistic reconstruction. In this book Professor Norde shows that change is reversible on all levels: semantic, morphological, syntactic, and phonological. As a consequence, the alleged unidirectionality of grammaticalization is not a reliable reconstructional tool, even if...

Language Evolution and Syntactic Theory
ISBN: 9780521895309 / Angielski / Twarda / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Evolution has not typically been recognised by linguists as a constraining factor when developing linguistic theories. This book demonstrates that our theories of language must reflect the fact that language has evolved. It critiques a currently dominant framework in the field of linguistics - the Minimalist Program - by showing how it fails to take evolution into account. It approaches the question of the evolution of human language in a novel way by applying findings from the field of evolutionary biology to language. Key properties associated with typically evolving systems are identified...
