Abstract

De interlinguïstiek bestudeert door de mens gemaakte internationale verkeerstalen. Het Esperanto (1887) is hiervan de bekendste en de enige die is uitgegroeid tot een taal van een wereldwijde gemeenschap die haar eigen literatuur, radioprogramma's en internetverkeer heeft, en in deze taal congressen organiseert. De ontwikkeling van de taal wordt niet gedirigeerd, maar is in handen van de verspreid wonende sprekers. Wim Jansen beschrijft in zijn oratie enkele spontane taalevoluties en gaat ook in op de attitude van taalgebruikers tegenover vermeende 'kunstgrepen'. De affectie die veel Esperanto

Abstract

Using data from a variety of languages such as Blackfoot, Halkomelem, and Upper Austrian German, this book explores a range of grammatical categories and constructions, including tense, aspect, subjunctive, case and demonstratives. It presents a new theory of grammatical categories - the Universal Spine Hypothesis - and reinforces generative notions of Universal Grammar while accommodating insights from linguistic typology. In essence, this new theory shows that language-specific categories are built from a small set of universal categories and language-specific units of language. Throughout the book the Universal Spine Hypothesis is compared to two alternative theories - the Universal Base Hypothesis and the No Base Hypothesis. This valuable addition to the field will be welcomed by graduate students and researchers in linguistics.

Abstract

Proposing a novel theory of parts of speech, this book discusses categorization from a methodological and theoretical point a view. It draws on discoveries and insights from a number of approaches - typology, cognitive grammar, notional approaches, and generative grammar - and presents a generative, feature-based theory. Building on up-to-date research and the latest findings and ideas in categorization and word-building, Panagiotidis combines the primacy of categorical features with a syntactic categorization approach, addressing the fundamental, but often overlooked, questions in grammatical theory. Designed for graduate students and researchers studying grammar and syntax, this book is richly illustrated with examples from a variety of languages and explains elements and phenomena central to the nature of human language.

Abstract

Argues that Henri Michaux's ideas on what might constitute a universal language are central to an understanding of his works. This book explores the intricate relationships between word and image in his poetry and paintings, and his quest for a single, unifying language or sign.

Abstract

This book addresses the foundational question of category distinctions and challenges the traditional views from the modern theoretical and experimental perspective. Its focus is on the noun-verb, noun-adjective distinctions and categories occupying the "grey zone" between standard categories (e.g., nominalizations). This book will be of interest for researchers and students of linguistics and cognitive sciences.
