Building and Interpreting Possession Sentences

  • Publisher: MIT Press

A wide-ranging generative analysis of the typology of possession sentences, solving long-standing puzzles in their syntax and semantics. A major question for linguistic theory concerns how the structure of sentences relates to their meaning. There is broad agreement in the field that there is some regularity in the way that lexical semantics and syntax are related, so that thematic roles (the different participant roles in an event: agent, theme, goal, etc.) are predictably associated with particular syntactic positions. In this book, Neil Myler examines the syntax and semantics of possession sentences, which are infamous for appearing to diverge dramatically from this broadly regular patter...

Formal Approaches to Languages of South America

This book analyzes the linguistic diversity of South America based on approaches deeply rooted in the tradition of formal grammar. The chapters brought together in this contributed volume consider native languages all kinds of languages used in the region, including sign languages, indigenous languages and the romance languages (Portuguese and Spanish) originally introduced by European colonizers which underwent processes of transformation giving rise to new, local grammars. One fourth of the language families of the world are located in South America, but the majority of languages in the region are still understudied and out of the radar of theoretical linguistics mostly because their gramm...

Perspectivas traductológicas desde América Latina

Los textos que componen este volumen son producto del Tercer Congreso Bienal de la Red Latinoamericana de Estudios de Traducción e Interpretación (RELAETI) que organizó la Universidad Católica de Temuco (Chile) en octubre 2020, dando continuidad a los fructíferos congresos de México (Zacatecas, 2018) y Argentina (Córdoba, 2020), cuyos trabajos ha acogido también esta casa editorial. Las investigaciones que aquí se presentan cubren distintas épocas y lugares del continente hispanoamericano, y adoptan enfoques diversos: lingüístico-discursivo, histórico, social, filosófico, que atañen tanto a la traducción escrita como a la interpretación. Perspectivas traductológicas desde América Latina se aproxima a lo que podría caracterizar una traductología latinoamericana, menos centrada en las búsquedas de carácter teórico y más interesadas en explorar las temáticas que marcaron y siguen marcando la convivencia, a ratos amable y no pocas veces conflictiva, entre las distintas comunidades y lenguas del continente.

Hablar lenguas indígenas hoy: nuevos usos, nuevas formas de transmisión

¿Cómo investigar nuevos usos de lenguas indígenas mediante abordajes colaborativos con sus hablantes? En este libro se exponen etnografías, relatos y experiencias sobre cambios en los usos de las lenguas indígenas contemporáneas, situadas en tres provincias argentinas: Chaco, Corrientes y Santiago del Estero. Estas investigaciones en co-labor proponen, así, un viaje por diferentes rincones del norte de la Argentina donde estas lenguas son vigentes y cotidianas y en los cuales diferentes actores -incluyendo a quienes investigan- participan en la transformación de las prácticas y de sus sentidos. Se trata de diagnósticos en co-labor, experiencias dolorosas, reflexividades compartidas, conflictos sociales y educativos. El resultado es una cartografía sociolingüística extensa y disímil, pero que da cuenta de una heterogeneidad que echa luz sobre un misterio: el espacio que es definido y que define lo bilingüe y a los hablantes bilingües.

Along the Hudson and Mohawk

In the summer of 1790 the Italian explorer Count Paolo Andreani embarked on a journey that would take him through New York State and eastern Iroquoia. Traveling along the Hudson and Mohawk Rivers, Andreani kept a meticulous record of his observations and experiences in the New World. Published complete for the first time in English, the diary is of major importance to those interested in life after the American Revolution, political affairs in the New Republic, and Native American peoples. Through Andreani's writings, we glimpse a world in cultural, economic, and political transition. An active participant in Enlightenment science, Andreani provides detailed observations of the landscape and...
