Superparticles: A Microsemantic Theory, Typology, and History of Logical Atoms: Studies in Natural Language and Linguistic Theory, cartea 98

Autor Moreno Mitrović
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 dec 2021
This book is all about the captivating ability that the human language has to express intricately logical (mathematical) meanings using tiny (microsemantic) morphemes as utilities. Languages mark meanings with identical inferences using identical particles and these particles thus creep up in a wide array of expressions. Because of their multi-tasking capacity to express seemingly disparate meanings, they are dubbed Superparticles. These particles are perfect windows into the interlock of several grammatical modules and the nature of the interaction of these modules through time. With a firm footing in the module where grammatical bones are built and assembled (narrow morpho-syntax), superparticles acquire varied interpretation (in the conceptual-intentional module – semantics) depending on the structure they fea- ture in. What is more, some of the interpretations these particles trigger are inferential and belong, under the standard account, to the realm of pragmatics. How can suchtiny particles, rarely exceeding a syllable of sound, have such powerful and over-arching effects across the inter-modular grammatical space? This is the Platonic background against which this book is set.

Caracteristici

Provides a novel systematic approach to formal diachronic semantics, pragmatics and syntax Evaluates and analyses the historical trends of semantic, syntactic change not only across the Indo-European family but also in Japonic Explores and helps to understand diachronic implicational relations in the grammatical system of logical expressions encoded with identical morphemes
