Syntax - Theory and Analysis. Volume 2
This Handbook represents the development of research and the current level of knowledge in the fields of syntactic theory and syntax analysis. Syntax can look back to a long tradition. Especially in the last 50 years, however, the interaction between syntactic theory and syntactic analysis has led to a rapid increase in analyses and theoretical suggestions. This second edition of the Handbook on Syntax adopts a unifying perspective and therefore does not place the division of syntactic theory into several schools to the fore, but the increase in knowledge resulting from the fruitful argumentations between syntactic analysis and syntactic theory. It uses selected phenomena of individual langu...
Corpus-based Translation and Interpreting Studies: From description to application / Estudios traductológicos basados en corpus: de la descripción a la aplicación
The contributions in this volume illustrate some noteworthy tendencies in current Corpus-based Translation and Interpreting Studies: the reflection on the state of research on the characteristics of translated language, the extension of descriptive proposals into minority languages, the diversification of applied proposals and the growing importance of corpora for the study of interpreting. Las aportaciones de este volumen representan algunas tendencias destacables en los actuales estudios traductológicos basados en corpus: la reflexión sobre el estado de la investigación en torno a las características de la lengua traducida, la extensión de las propuestas descriptivas a lenguas minoritarias, la diversificación de las propuestas aplicadas y la creciente importancia de los corpus para el estudio de la interpretación.
Contrastive Sociolinguistics
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE SOCIOLOGY OF LANGUAGE brings to students, researchers and practitioners in all of the social and language-related sciences carefully selected book-length publications dealing with sociolinguistic theory, methods, findings and applications. It approaches the study of language in society in its broadest sense, as a truly international and interdisciplinary field in which various approaches, theoretical and empirical, supplement and complement each other. The series invites the attention of linguists, language teachers of all interests, sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists, historians etc. to the development of the sociology of language.
Word-Formation
This handbook comprises an in-depth presentation of the state of the art in word-formation. The five volumes contain 207 articles written by leading international scholars. The XVI chapters of the handbook provide the reader, in both general articles and individual studies, with a wide variety of perspectives: word-formation as a linguistic discipline (history of science, theoretical concepts), units and processes in word-formation, rules and restrictions, semantics and pragmatics, foreign word-formation, language planning and purism, historical word-formation, word-formation in language acquisition and aphasia, word-formation and language use, tools in word-formation research. The final chapter comprises 74 portraits of word-formation in the individual languages of Europe and offers an innovative perspective. These portraits afford the first overview of this kind and will prove useful for future typological research. This handbook will provide an essential reference for both advanced students and researchers in word-formation and related fields within linguistics.
Sprachwelten und Sprachwissen
Die Studie entwirft auf der Basis eines sozio-kognitiven Wissensbegriffs ausgehend von den alltäglichen Lebenswelten ein umfassendes Modell laienlinguistischen Wisssens, das mittels einer empirischen Untersuchung plausibilisiert wird. Zudem findet zum ersten Mal eine umfassende Modellierung des Laien statt. Am Ende stehen damit ein theoretisch fundiertes Bild des linguistischen Laien sowie umfassend analysierte Daten zu Sprachkonzepten im Alltag.
Sprache und Sprachbewusstsein in Europa / Langues et conscience linguistique en Europe
Das Jahrbuch des Frankreichzentrums 2010 behandelt zum einen Entwicklungen innerhalb ausgewählter europäischer Sprachen und zum anderen metasprachliche Diskussionen über diese Entwicklungen in der Sprachwissenschaft sowie in der breiten Öffentlichkeit. Fragen von Sprach- und Bildungspolitik werden ebenso angesprochen wie die Konfliktlinien zwischen Sprachwissenschaft, Sprachmittlung und öffentlichen bzw. politischen Interessen an Sprachenfragen. Die Kontrastierung verschiedener Länder und Reflexionsebenen ermöglicht einen differenzierten Einblick in den Problemkomplex Sprache und Sprachbewusstsein in Europa.
Adjektive
Die Probleme, die das Adjektiv aufwirft, sind vielfältig; und zahlreich sind die Bezüge zwischen ihnen. Beides ergibt sich aus einem charakteristischen „Dazwischen“ des Adjektivs. Und wenn der vorliegende Band seine Beiträge geordnet in drei Sektionen: Grammatik, Pragmatik, Erwerb präsentiert, dann vor dem Hintergrund, dass sich in allen drei Zugangsweisen dieses „Dazwischen“ in spezifischer Form wiederfindet: Grammatisch sind die Adjektive als Wortart definiert über ihre primär attributive Funktion, die zwischen Referenz und Prädikation rangiert, in ihrem pragmatischen Nutzen bewegen sich Adjektive kaum greifbar zwischen Bewertung und Beschreibung, und im Adjektiverwerb schei...
Valency
In recent years, research on valency has led to important insights into the nature of language. Some of these findings are published in this volume for the first time with up-to-date accounts of language description and new reflections on language, above all for English and German. The volume also presents examples of contrastive analysis, which are of use for all those who deal professionally with these two languages. Furthermore, the articles in the psycholinguistic and computational linguistics section demonstrate the applicability and value of valency theory for these approaches and shed light on a fruitful cooperation between theoretical and descriptive linguistics and applied disciplin...
The Emergence of the Modern Language Sciences: Historiographical perspectives
Although it is widely thought that structural linguistics began abruptly with the publication of Saussure's 'revolutionary' "Course in General Linguistics," the work of E. F. K. Koerner has demonstrated that Saussure, for all his originality, remained true to the basic tenets of his 19th-century predecessors. In this volume, the development of modern linguistics before, during and after Saussure is traced in 20 studies honouring the scholar who has done more than anyone else to professionalize linguistic historiography during the last quarter century. Among the wide range of topics covered are: grammar and philosophy in the age of comparativism, the relation of Saussure's anagram studies to his theory of the linguistic sign, nationalist overtones in German linguistics from 1914 to 1945, and the true story (with newly discovered documentation) of why Chomsky's "Logical Structure of Linguistic Theory" didn't get published during the 1950s or 60s. In addition to an introductory overview of Koerner's career and a complete listing of his publications, the volume includes previously unpublished materials from Saussure's notebooks.
