Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negation has always been and still is a central topic in typological studies and theoretical research. Its centrality shows itself in the fact that it is not restricted to a given linguistic field but compasses the whole domain of linguistic studies. Very often, works on negation are brought about in a one-sided perspective which excludes other points of view. This book, on the contrary, puts together studies on negation based on various theoretical frameworks and aims to cover a wide range of theoretical perspectives. The book offers contributions on negation in Old Occitan, in Old Italic languages, and in several modern Romance languages (Italian, Roumanian, French, Spanish, Occitan, Catalan, among others). It covers the diachronic dimension of negation, and explores the syntactic as well as the semantico-pragmatic side of the phenomenon; aspects of negative affixation provide the morphological dimension. The originality of this volume thus lies in the multidisciplinarity of the approaches and perspectives offered.La question de la négation a toujours été et demeure un sujet central dans les recherches en linguistique théorique et typologique. Son caractère central réside en ceci qu'elle n'est pas limitée à un domaine linguistique donné, mais embrasse le champ entier de la recherche linguistique. Aussi les travaux sur la négation sont-ils très souvent réalisés dans une perspective donnée qui exclut de facto d'autres points de vue ou d'autres approches. Cet ouvrage prend au contraire le parti de réunir des études dont les postulats théoriques et méthodologiques sont variés, couvrant ainsi un éventail de perspectives théoriques. Le présent volume propose donc des contributions sur la négation en Ancien Occitan, dans les langues de l'Italie ancienne et dans diverses langues romanes contemporaines (notamment en Italien, Roumain, Français, Espagnol, Occitan, Catalan). Il couvre ainsi la dimension diachronique de la négation, et s'attache à en décrire le fonctionnement d'un point de vue syntaxique aussi bien que sémantico-pragmatique. La dimension morphologique de la négation est également abordée via la problématique de l'affixation négative. L'originalité de cet ouvrage réside donc dans la multidisciplinarité des approches et des perspectives qu'il offre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grammaire des Langues Romanes, Vol. 3 La syntaxe enseigne a grouper pour leur faire exprimer une idee, c'est - a-dire en une proposition, les parties du discours qui dans l'etude etymologique ont ete considerees au point de vue de la forme et de la flexion. Elle doit avoir egard non - seulement aux principes qui reglent en general l'assemblage des parties du discours entre elles, mais aussi a l'emploi des mots individuels qui appartiennent a l'une ou a l'autre. La pmp03ition est simple on multiple (composee); cette distinction, qui a sa raison d'etre dans la nature des langues arrivees a un certain degre de deve loppement, doit etre observee aussi dans cette etude la pre miere partie traitera donc de la proposition simple, la seconde de la proposition composee. Les regles concernant la place que doivent occuper les mots dans la proposition ou l'ordre dans lequel doivent se succeder les diverses propositions pourraient etre indiquees occasionneflement dans ces deux parties, mais une etude a part de cette question ne presente pas seulement des avan tages pratiques, elle fait mieux apprecier un trait caracteristique important des nouvelles langues. Il ne semble pas moins raison nable de consacrer une section speciale a la methode de negation romane, essentiellement differente de l'ancienne methode et moins simple. D'ensemble de la syntaxe romane se divise donc en quatre sectionsrnsmexx section. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La litterature sur la negation est tres abondante, mais il n'existe aucun ouvrage de synthese qui traite la negation en latin. Le present ouvrage vise d'abord a combler cette lacune. Il fournit un apercu de la problematique de la negation dans les domaines de la logique et de la linguistique. Il developpe une approche pragmatique qui considere la negation dans un cadre illocutoire ou elle joue un role fonctionnel. A partir des donnees latines, cet ouvrage analyse le role des pronoms indefinis, les phenomenes de polarisation, les rapports entre negation et comparaison, negation et disjonction, ainsi que le fonctionnement argumentatif des adverbes et des connecteurs negatifs de la langue latine. L'ouvrage tente de mettre a jour la strategie argumentative qui s'appuie sur la negation dans l'expression de la concession et dans l'interrogation. Un chapitre est aussi consacre aux rapports entre negation et modalite. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux latinistes, mais aussi aux specialistes de linguistique et aux philosophes du langage.

Download or read book The Expression of Negation written by Laurence R. Horn and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2010-05-27 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negation is a sine qua non of every human language but is absent from otherwise complex systems of animal communication. In many ways, it is negation that makes us human, imbuing us with the capacity to deny, to contradict, to misrepresent, to lie, and to convey irony. The apparent simplicity of logical negation as a one-place operator that toggles truth and falsity belies the intricate complexity of the expression of negation in natural language. Not only do we find negative adverbs, verbs, copulas, quantifiers, and affixes, but the interaction of negation with other operators (including multiple iterations of negation itself) can be exceedingly complex to describe, extending (as first detailed by Otto Jespersen) to negative concord, negative incorporation, and the widespread occurrence of negative polarity items whose distribution is subject to principles of syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. The chapters in this book survey the patterning of negative utterances in natural languages, spanning such foundational issues as how negative sentences are realized cross-linguistically and how that realization tends to change over time, how negation is acquired by children, how it is processed by adults, and how its expression changes over time. Specific chapters offer focused empirical studies of negative polarity, pleonastic negation, and negative/quantifier scope interaction, as well as detailed examinations of the form and function of sentential negation in modern Romance languages and Classical Japanese.

Special emphasis is given to little-known languages, whose analysis may shed new light on long-standing problems in general linguistics.

Download or read book The Grammar of French Quantification written by Lena Baunaz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-03-02 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first extensive study on French Quantification in the field of Syntax. It provides a typology of four main quantified noun phrases in French (existential, universal, negative and wh-), detailing their syntactic, semantic and prosodic behaviors and showing that they can be reduced to two classes—Split-DP structures or Floating quantification. Relying on syntax and semantics, the book establishes a three-way structural typology of wh in-situ phrases and extends it to existentials. It pays special attention to the prosodic properties associated with their different readings and proposes an analysis of the distribution of subextraction and pied-piping. Similarly based on semantic and syntactic tests, the book reveals N(egative) words to be universal Quantifiers. It proposes a new structure of N-words in terms of constituent negation and includes a detailed analysis of the difference between not an N and not all the N in French.

This book was released on 2016-09-12 with total page 755 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Different components of grammar interact in non-trivial ways. It has been under debate what the actual range of interaction is and how we can most appropriately represent this in grammatical theory. The volume provides a general overview of various topics in the linguistics of Romance languages by examining them through the interaction of grammatical components and functions as a state-of-the-art report, but at the same time as a manual of Romance languages.

Download or read book Negation and Polarity written by Danielle Forget and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, there has been a revival of interest regarding negation and polarity, with much cross-fertilization between semantic and syntactic approaches. The papers in the present volume address key issues regarding the syntax and semantics of negation and polarity, including both synchronic and diachronic perpectives. Central to the discussions are the distribution of negative markers and the structure of the clause, negative concord phenomena, licensing of polarity items, similarities between Neg-movement and wh-movement. The papers, by main contributors to the field, reflect different theoretical frameworks, including Principles and Parameters and Minimalist approaches, Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar, Formal Semantics, or approaches interested in pragmatics. The volume is of interest to syntacticians, semanticians, historical linguists, typologists, and philosophers.

This book was released on 1998-08-26 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first full-length study of sentential negation phenomena in French. Paul Rowlett assesses, from a generative perspective, the respective contribution made to the expression of clausal polarity by ne, pas, and elements such as jamais and personne. His conclusions have far-reaching implications, leading to the controversial hypothesis that, despite widespread belief, French is not a negative concord language.

Download or read book The Locus of Linguistic Variation written by Constantine Lignos and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores how the patterning of surface variation can shed light on the grammatical representation of variable phenomena. The authors explore variation in several domains, addressing intra- and inter-dialectal patterns, using diverse sources of data including corpora of naturally-occurring speech and judgment studies, and drawing on lesser-studied varieties of familiar languages, such as Northwest British Englishes and varieties of Canadian French. Ultimately, the contributions serve to expand our understanding of the nature of the mental representations and abstract processes required to support variation in language.
