Abstract

The change from temporal to cause is one of the well-known grammaticalization paths. This article analyses the change in the Estonian conjunction kuna, 'while; as, because' from temporal to causal one as well as the attitude of the Estonian language planners towards this change. This change has mainly taken place during the twentieth century. The end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century witnessed the prevailing use of the temporal use of kuna. However, during the latter part of the 20th century the use of kuna began to shift, and the use of causal kuna began to dominate. As an intermediary stage between the temporal and causal usages, kuna was used as an adversative temporal conjunction. The impact of this shift in usage of kuna as a causal conjunction has also slightly changed the use of other Estonian causal conjunctions. Initially, Estonian language planners adopted a strict attitude towards the change of kuna, but language planning could not halt this change. For example, editors continued to cross out the causal use of kuna, but they could not increase the temporal use, and this usage of the conjunction hardly appears in the written texts of the 1970s. However, the change was finally accepted in the 1990s.

Abstract

This book presents the first comprehensive typology of purpose clause constructions in the world's languages. Based on a stratified variety sample of 80 languages, it uncovers the unity and diversity of the morphosyntactic means by which purposive relations are coded, and discusses the status of purpose clauses in the syntactic and conceptual space of complex sentences. Explanations for significantly recurrent coding patterns are couched in a usage-based approach to language structure, which pays due attention to the cognitive and communicative pressures on usage events involving purpose clauses, to frequency distributions of grammatical choices in corpora, and to the ways in which usage preferences conventionalize in pathways of diachronic change. The book integrates diverse previous strands of research on purpose clauses with a thorough empirical analysis in its own right and thus reflects the current state of the art of crosslinguistic research into this distinctive type of adverbial clause.An appendix to A Typology of Purpose Clauses can be found on the author's website: www.karsten-schmidtke.net/purpose.

Abstract

Les nouvelles technologies ont investi notre sphère privée et professionnelle, le travail a quitté les espaces traditionnels qui lui étaient réservés dans les locaux de l'entreprise pour s'implanter à domicile. Le télétravail remet en cause le lien de subordination contrebalancé entre l'autonomie du travailleur et le lien d'autorité. Ce mémoire consiste à éclairer ces éléments d'un point de vue juridique et sociologique.

Abstract

El volumen está dividido en dos partes. En la primera se presentan los planteamientos generales que han guiado los trabajos que lo componen y se analizan diversas cuestiones de índole diacrónica. La segunda parte recoge una serie de trabajos de tipo sincrónico que revisan cuestiones relacionadas con las diferentes estructuras sintácticas que tradicionalmente se han acogido como parte de la subordinación adverbial y, en consecuencia, los diferentes tipos de categorías sintácticas que encabezan estas construcciones.En definitiva, el lector encontrará en esta obra una selección de trabajos que tratan de aportar luz al fenómeno de la subordinación adverbial en el caso particular del español.
