书名: Existence: Semantics and Syntax (Studies in Linguistics and Philosophy)
作者: Ileana Comorovski (Editor), Klaus von Heusinger (Editor)
出版社: Springer; 1 edition (September 4, 2007)
语言: English
ISBN-10: 140206196X
ISBN-13: 978-1402061967
Book Description
This collection is an important contribution to the semantic and syntactic analysis of the expression of existence. The volume focuses on the three main linguistic constructions expressing existence: copular clauses, existential sentences, and (in)definiteness. The papers analyze the interaction between the basic notion of existence and pervasive phenomena of natural language, such as quantification and presupposition. The contributions represent state of the art research on theoretical and comparative issues related to the expression of existence, and make extensive reference to the semantic and syntactic facts of English and of various other languages. The richness of new data and the juxtaposition of different theoretical stances bring a number of new questions into focus.
