Derivational Networks Across Languages
This pioneering research brings a new insight into derivational processes in terms of theory, method and typology. Theoretically, it conceives of derivation as a three-dimensional system. Methodologically, it introduces a range of parameters for the evaluation of derivational networks, including the derivational role, combinability and blocking effects of semantic categories, the maximum derivational potential and its actualization in relation to simple underived words, and the maximum and average number of orders of derivation. Each language-specific chapter has a unified structure, which made it possible to identify – in the final, typologically oriented chapter – the systematicity and regularity in developing derivational networks in a sample of forty European languages and in a few language genera and families. This is supported by considerations about the role of word-classes, morphological types, and the differences and similarities between word-formation processes of the languages belonging to the same genus/family.
Binominal Lexemes in Cross-Linguistic Perspective
The typological, contrastive, and descriptive studies in this volume investigate the strategies employed by the world’s languages to create complex denotations by combining two noun-like elements, together with the kinds of semantic relation they involve, and their acquisition by children. The term ‘binominal lexeme’ is employed to cover both noun-noun compounds and a range of other naming strategies, including prepositional compounds, relational compounds, construct forms, genitival constructions, and more. Overall, the volume suggests a new, cross-linguistic approach to the study of complex lexeme formation that cuts across the traditional boundaries between syntax, morphology, and lexicon.
Word-Formation – Special Patterns and Restrictions
This reader is part of a five-volume-edition and comprises an in-depth presentation of the state of the art in word-formation. Volume 2 concentrates on select aspects of word-formation processes and their patterns including how they conform to more general phonological, syntactic and semantic restrictions.
К Истории Славистики В Неславянских Странах, Russe
This volume, published nineteen years after the "Contributions on the History of Slavic Studies in Non-Slavic Countries" ("Beitragen zur Geschichte der Slawistik in nichtslawischen Landern", Vienna, 1985, Schriften der Balkankommission, Linguistische Abteilung, Bd. 30), is witness to the changing concept of "Slavic Studies" as well as the reforms in methods and interests in regard to the Slavic world in a period in which Europe finds itself in massive transformation. In addition to traditional disciplines such as linguistics, literature and history, areas such as sociology, the fine arts and theatre and other interdisciplinary subjects are also dealt with. Although some of the contributions ...
