Diachronic Studies on Information Structure - Language Acquisition and Change (Hardcover): Gisella Ferraresi, Rosemarie Luhr Diachronic Studies on Information Structure - Language Acquisition and Change (Hardcover)

In the last few years a lively discussion on information packaging has arisen, where traditional dichotomies Theme/Rheme, Topic/Comment and Focus/Background have been taken up again and partly reinterpreted. The discussion is mainly being held in syntax, but also in the fields of semantics and pragmatics. Some remarkable progress has been made especially in Focus phonology. Even if the role of information conveying and information packaging in the Indoeuropean languages was hinted at as early as in the classical studies of the Neogrammarians, this field has remained neglected in today's historical linguistics. This volume tries to partly cover this lack with a sample of papers which offer a various range of new empirical data analyzed from the point of view of information structure. The novelty of the papers consists in the modern theoretical perspective from which the data are analyzed and in the various phenomena considered, which range from the rise of clitic elements to word order change and verb movement.

Die Verknupfung von einfachen Satzen zu komplexen Einheiten ist ein elementares Verfahren, das alle Sprachen nutzen, um die Brucke zwischen der Struktur des einfachen Satzes und der von Texten zu schlagen. Der Band versammelt Beitrage, die sich diesem Thema aus verschiedenen Perspektiven nahern: systembezogen, sprachgeschichtlich, sprachvergleichend, diskursbezogen, korpuslinguistisch.

Language Change and Generative Grammar (German, Paperback, 1996 ed.): Ed. by Ellen Brandner and Gisella Ferraresi Language Change and Generative Grammar (German, Paperback, 1996 ed.)

In den letzten Jahren hat sich die generative Grammatik in Form des Prinzipien-Parameter-Modells verstarkt auch mit den diachronen Aspekten der Syntax einzelner Sprachen befasst. Das neu erwachte Interesse an der Diachronie beruht zum Teil darauf, dass das P&P-Modell relativ starke Vorhersagen daruber macht, wie und in welchem Umfang syntaktischer Wandel uberhaupt moglich ist.Ein Phanomen, das nicht nur in der diachronischen Betrachtung der germanischen und romanischen Sprachen eine zentrale Stellung einnimmt, ist das des sogenannten V/2. Dieser Thematik widmen sich alleine vier Beitrage aus verschiedenen theoretischen Perspektiven. Ein anderer Schwerpunkt ist die Genitivrektion im Alt- und Mittelhochdeutschen, die von den Autoren mit Faktoren wie Aspekt, Definitheit und Referenzeigenschaften in Verbindung gebracht wird. Andere Beitrage behandeln die morphologische Reduktion von Kasusendungen, die wiederum zu Anderungen in der Wortstellungen fuhrt.
In recent years, generative grammar has paid increasing attention to diachronic aspects of syntax, also because the Principles and Parameters approach makes rather strong predictions with respect to language change and possible variation. The V/2 phenomenon found in Germanic and in (old) Romance languages is discussed in several articles from various perspectives. Other contributions cover, among other things, the genitive in Old and Middle High German and morphological Case reduction and its consequences for word order."
