Marquesan

This volume investigates the linguistic and semantic encodings and conceptions of space in the East-Polynesian language Marquesan by focusing on the great variety of language- and culture-specific ways of referring to space, thus documenting an essential part of human behaviour and everyday communication in a South Pacific island population. On the basis of a large corpus of both natural and elicited spoken language data the morphosyntactic and semantic properties of all relevant lexical and grammatical units and constructions used for spatial reference are analysed in detail. Remarkable for this language is the fact that a particular kind of spatial orientation system based on local landmarks of the environment - a so-called 'absolute system' - is used for spatial description even on a micro-level or so-called 'table-top' space. Marquesan - A Grammar of Space is the first comprehensive description and in-depth study of spatial language to be found in an Austronesian language. Apart from examining the complex sociolinguistic situation, the degree of language endangerment in the bilingual speech community and the resulting rapid linguistic change in spatial language use, the book also offers a detailed description of the theoretical background of 'language and space' research and the linguistic variability to be found across languages. Moreover, the volume contains an extensive grammatical sketch of Marquesan which complements the language description of the specific domain space in a useful way providing the reader with general insights into one of the not well documented Oceanic languages. The volume addresses linguists, psycholinguists, anthropologists, fieldworking linguists, and especially Oceanists and Austronesianists. Moreover, it provides important insights for researchers from other disciplines that are interested in the study of space.

Evidentiality in German

Evidentiality in German

Gabriele Diewald; Elena Smirnova

De Gruyter Mouton
2010
sidottu
This book is a comprehensive study of the evidential system in German. It presents a systematic description of the encoding of evidentiality in present-day German, as well as a diachronic reconstruction of the relevant sources and paths of grammaticalization from the Old High German period onwards. Based on empirical corpus research, the study investigates the degree of grammaticalization of each single evidential construction and the make-up of the present-day system as well as the diachronic stages that lead to the present state. The book focuses on three main issues. First, it is concerned with the general notion of evidentiality, its deictic character, and with the interrelations between the domains of evidentiality and epistemic modality. Second, the book presents the results of the synchronic corpus-based analysis of the German evidential periphrastic constructions werden 'become' + infinitive, scheinen 'seem', drohen 'threaten', versprechen 'promise' + zu 'to'- infinitive, which constitute a paradigm for coding evidentiality in Present Day German. Third, the diachronic development of the evidential constructions is represented as a complex grammaticalization process, interacting with the development of modal constructions and leading to a highly differentiated category of modal and evidential distinctions in the grammar of German.

In Search of Pythagoreanism

In Search of Pythagoreanism

Gabriele Cornelli

De Gruyter
2013
sidottu
The history of Pythagoreanism is littered with different and incompatible interpretations, to the point that Kahn (1974) suggested that, instead of another thesis on Pythagoreanism, it would be preferable to assess traditions with the aim of producing a good historiographical presentation. This almost fourty-year-old observation by Kahn, directs the author of this book towards a fundamentally historiographical rather than philological brand of work, that is, one neither exclusively devoted to the exegesis of sources such as Philolaus, Archytas or even of one of the Hellenistic Lives nor even to the theoretical approach of one of the themes that received specific contributions from Pythagoreanism, such as mathematics, cosmology, politics or theories of the soul. Instead, this monograph sets out to reconstruct the way in which the tradition established Pythagoreanism’s image, facing one of the central problems that characterizes Pythagoreanism more than other ancient philosophical movements: the drastically shifting terrain of the criticism of the sources. The goal of this historiographical approach is to embrace Pythagoreanism in its entirety, through - and not in spite of - its complex articulation across more than a millennium.

Periphere Räume in der Amerikanistik

Periphere Räume in der Amerikanistik

Gabriele Pisarz-Ramirez; Steffen Adrian Wöll

de Gruyter Oldenbourg
2019
pokkari
Dieser Band besch ftigt sich mit dem Begriff der Peripherie als kulturwissenschaftlichem Konzept sowie mit den diskursiven und narrativen Dimensionen peripherer R ume. Sp testens seit dem spatial turn ist der Konstruktionscharakter von R umen evident, was auch und insbesondere die Raumvorstellungen von Zentrum und Peripherie betrifft. Als periphere R ume betrachtet man in der Kulturgeographie und den Kulturwissenschaften R ume, die von den Zentren nur bedingt kontrolliert und gesteuert werden k nnen und in denen sich folglich Prozesse der Aufl sung z.B. kultureller und normativer Setzungen, der Mischung und Hybridisierung sowie der Entstehung von alternativen Formen kollektiver Identit t abspielen k nnen. Gleichzeitig sind periphere R ume Orte der Abgrenzung und Exklusion gegen ber anderen Systemen, aber auch der Ber hrung mit diesen. Die vorliegende Untersuchung zeigt am Beispiel der USA die Zentralit t von Vorstellungen ber Peripherien oder periphere R ume f r kollektive Selbstbestimmungsprozesse. Sie wirken pr gend auf die Imagination des Nationalen Selbst und stehen so f r die Legitimation spezifischer politischer und kulturhistorischer Projekte zur Verf gung.
