Veröffentlicht werden hochwertige Arbeiten, die aktuelle Fragestellungen bearbeiten und die Entwicklung der Sprachwissenschaft, synchron oder diachron, empirisch oder theoretisch orientiert, vorantreiben. The book series Linguistische Arbeiten (LA) publishes high-quality work in linguistics that addresses current issues in synchrony and diachrony, theoretically or empirically oriented.
Challenging existing lexical-semantic accounts, this book presents a compositional approach to factivity and its acquisition. Factive sentences such as >John forgot that he bought wine< presuppose the truth of the embedded complement. the author argues that factivity results from the interaction of lexical-semantic, syntactic, and discourse-semantic factors. rigorously designed experiments and a detailed analysis of longitudinal corpora provide evidence that the multidimensionality is mirrored in the acquisition process by a stepwise mastery of its different components. this book should be of interest to advanced students and researchers in both theoretical linguistics and language acquisition. presuppose="" the="" truth="" of="" the="" embedded="" complement.="" the="" author="" argues="" that="" factivity="" results="" from="" the="" interaction="" of="" lexical-semantic,="" syntactic,="" and="" discourse-semantic="" factors.="" rigorously="" designed="" experiments="" and="" a="" detailed="" analysis="" of="" longitudinal="" corpora="" provide="" evidence="" that="" the="" multidimensionality="" is="" mirrored="" in="" the="" acquisition="" process="" by="" a="" stepwise="" mastery="" of="" its="" different="" components.="" this="" book="" should="" be="" of="" interest="" to="" advanced="" students="" and="" researchers="" in="" both="" theoretical="" linguistics="" and="" language=""></ presuppose the truth of the embedded complement. the author argues that factivity results from the interaction of lexical-semantic, syntactic, and discourse-semantic factors. rigorously designed experiments and a detailed analysis of longitudinal corpora provide evidence that the multidimensionality is mirrored in the acquisition process by a stepwise mastery of its different components. this book should be of interest to advanced students and researchers in both theoretical linguistics and language acquisition.>
