Romantic Etymology and Language Ecology by Tristram Nash Wolff A Romantic Etymology and Language Ecology by Tristram Nash Wolff A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Anne-Lise François, Chair Professor Michael Lucey Professor Steven Goldsmith Professor Judith Butler Professor Niklaus Largier Fall 2013 Romantic Etymology and Language Ecology © 2013 by Tristram Nash Wolff Abstract Romantic Etymology and Language Ecology by Tristram Nash Wolff Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory University of California, Berkeley Professor Anne-Lise François, Chair This dissertation brings to light an etymological poetics in European and American Romanticism, through natural figures of temporal process that changed language’s shape. I argue that the supposed “primitivism” of theories that root language in nature can often be better understood as efforts to model a simultaneous solidity and liquidity in language’s forms, using metaphors borrowed from natural history. These theories react against arbitrary or conventional Lockean “signs” and the rational agents who invent them, while at the same time avoiding the stability of traditional “naturalisms,” such as Cratylic or Adamic myths of naming. By demonstrating the ethical insufficiency of words alienated from their disorderly contexts, the practice of “Romantic etymology” reconstructs not derivations of individual words, but linguistic philosophy itself. Chapter One begins by crediting Herder and Humboldt with the effort to transfer language’s “origin” from the distant past to an ongoing process of formation, so that language is ecologically formed through complex, collective processes of which individuals always remain partly in the dark. Chapter Two develops the idea of a language ecology by placing Blake’s poetry in the context of eighteenth-century debates about the limits imposed on linguistic life by the silent, motionless figure of stone. Against such limits, I read Blake’s poetic voices in “The Clod and the Pebble” as a language of geological process. Chapter Three examines Wordsworth’s relation to the etymological logic produced by Coleridge’s interest in radical philologist John Horne Tooke. In a reading of “Hart-Leap Well,” I argue that Wordsworth resists simplistic origin stories by illustrating language’s vulnerability to disintegration and reformation. Chapter Four follows this linguistic naturalism to America, finding that in their most apparently “Cratylic” or naïve moments, the Romantic essays of Emerson and Thoreau aim not to name the primitive roots anchoring individual words, but to recognize language’s inevitable mobility. A retrospective Coda traces nineteenth-century philology’s development from a positivist cultural formation with vague ties to natural history and organicist metaphysics, to a social science determined to cut ties with its naturalist past by reviving the terminology of linguistic “arbitrariness”; this disciplinary history illuminates a concluding etymological episode in Proust’s À la recherche du temps perdu, whose critical naturalism detaches language from a particularly immobile idea of nature. 1 Contents Acknowledgments ii Introduction: Uprooting “Nature”: Etymology and Ecology 1 I. “Refuge in Etymology” II.

How different the world to them!” But how lucky to know all. For critical interventions and collaborative conversations: Kevis Goodman, Janet Sorenson, Rob Kaufman. Celeste Langan deserves special mention: she not only placed John Horne Tooke’s etymologies in my way back in 2008, but then followed Tooke two years later with the creature who became Klaus the cat. For support financial and intellectual, the 2011 Summer Mellon Dissertation Seminar and its fellows; the Critical Theory Designated Emphasis; the 2012-13 Townsend Center for the Humanities and its fellows; the UC Berkeley Department of Comparative Literature; and the editors of Essays in Romanticism, journal of the International Conference on Romanticism. To those who read parts of my dissertation, and left their prints on it: among them are indispensable allies and dissertation reading group members Toby Warner, Katrina Dodson, Corey Byrnes, and sometimes Emily Drumsta; Kathryn Crim (Marx and rocks), Tom McEnaney (Proust and trains), and Alex Dubilet (“more Soviet mineralogy please!”). No amount of follow-through could do justice to the possible worlds envisioned in conversation with Andrea Gadberry: to our many projects, real and imagined. For other necessary friendships and revelatory conversations about this, that and the other, as I worked: David Simon, Rhiannon Graybill, Michael Lukas, Justin Boner, Travis Wilds, Shaul Setter (of course!), Lealah Pollock. Amanda Jo Goldstein and Lily Gurton-Wachter are, in addition to being old comrades, two luminous model Romanticists. To my parents, Christian Wolff and Holly Nash Wolff, and my siblings Tico, Tamsen and Yeo — a close-knit clan, in many stripes — boundless thanks for love, conversation, work and play. Klaus, who falling asleep in my lap used mild force to persuade me to write. And lastly to Corey, who by taking my work seriously and keeping me from taking work too seriously, made it work — then helped set it aside. When I try to say how I feel, the words move. ii Introduction Uprooting “Nature”: Etymology and Ecology For we are like tree trunks in the snow. In appearance they sit atop smoothly and a little force should be enough to push them aside. No, it can’t be done, for they are firmly joined to the ground. But see, even that is only appearance.1 — Kafka, “The Trees” Frail is the bond, by which we hold Our being, be we young or old, Wise, foolish, weak or strong. — Wordsworth, “The Oak and the Broom” I. “Refuge in Etymology” One story told in Kafka’s parable “Die Bäume” walks the reader through a sequence of illusions about rootedness. A “we” (quickly changed to a “they”) looks temporarily perched; then seems more permanently fixed; then seems, in a second reversal, capable of being detached from the ground after all. The appearance of simply resting is complicated by the discovery of firm attachments, but these attachments can, it turns out, be remedied. There is the vague sense of a humble life that proves itself to be made of sterner stuff, only to be ominously ‘eradicated’ in the end after all. Kafka’s analogy (“wir sind wie Baumstämme”), if read beside Wordsworth’s “The Oak and the Broom: A Pastoral,” might conceivably be imagined as a late twist on the “trick” of pastoral (in Empson’s broad sense of grafting the lofty onto the humble, or “putting the complex into the simple”). Wordsworth’s lyric centers on a conversation between a patriarchal oak tree standing high on a crag and a quick-witted shrub growing out of the rocks below about the relative stability of their positions: with apt irony, the storm that then uproots the prominent oak spares the broom. The humble broom gets the lofty speech (“Frail is the bond, by which we hold / our being,” etc.); the oak meets a sudden end; and the lowlier and simpler is revealed as the surer root. And yet: something about that line — “frail is the bond” — stays with us; something in Wordsworth’s tone tells us he believes that this small triumph, too, is “only appearance.” Such a phrase, asserting both bond and impermanence, implies that something like Kafka’s second reversal, the last twist of “Die Bäume,” is already turning in Wordsworth’s pastoral poetry: all feelings of rootedness are matched by the persistent awareness of their frailty. This dissertation tells a similar story, this time in the form of literary history and through a series of examples from the literatures of Romanticism. The version of the ‘rootedness’ narrative I tell here gives surprising new dimension to the historical significance of natural metaphors in Romantic language philosophy.

THE TRICHOTOMY OF PROCESSES: A PHILOSOPHICAL BASIS FOR INFORMATION SYSTEMS George R. Widmeyer University of Michigan [email protected] Abstract The principle of trichotomy from the American philosopher Charles S. Peirce can be used to categorize processes into the triad of transactional, informational, and relational. The usefulness of these categories is explicated by a comparison with structuration theory and control theory, and elaborated with a consideration of democracy in a knowledge economy. These three example applications of the process triad show the generality of the conceptual categories and provide a natural way of bringing ideas from social and ethical theories into information systems design. Modeling the world and understanding business applications through the use of the Trichotomy of Processes should facilitate the development of more valuable information systems. Keywords: Business processes, information systems theory, conceptual modeling, ontology, Peirce, open society Introduction Various frameworks for understanding the business processes of an organization have been proposed.

KANT ON RECOGNIZING OUR DUTIES AS GOD'S COMMANDS John E. Hare Kant both says that we should recognize our duties as God's commands, and objects to the theological version of heteronomy, 'which derives morality from a divine and supremely perfect will'. In this paper I discuss how these two views fit together, and in the process I develop a notion of autonomous submission to divine moral authority. I oppose the 'constitutive' view of autonomy proposed by J. B. Schneewind and Christine Korsgaard. I locate Kant's objection to theological heteronomy against the background of Crusius's divine command theory, and I compare Kant's views about divine authority and human political authority. 1.

    Journal of Transcendental Philosophy 2020; 1(3): 307–312 Book Review Huaping Lu-Adler. Kant and the Science of Logic: A Historical and Philosophical Reconstruction. Oxford: Oxford University Press. 2018. Reviewed by Stephen Palmquist, Department of Religion & Philosophy, Hong Kong Baptist University, Kowloon, Hong Kong, E-mail: [email protected] https://doi.org/10.1515/jtph-2020-0021 Notwithstanding its title, this book is not about the science called “logic”—at least, not insofar as “science of logic” refers to the rules, procedures, and guiding principles that constitute the laws of thought. While Huaping Lu-Adler often refers in passing to logical operations such as syllogisms, she never discusses their rules of operation. She does mention the law/principle of (non)contradiction eight times and that of identity once (p. 14); yet these all appear in quotes or side-comments. (She never mentions the law of excluded middle.) Similarly, she limits her treat- ment of potentially relevant post-Kantian developments in logic to a few brief glosses on Boole and Frege (pp. 3, 195–7), without referring to propositional logic, fuzzy logic, dialetheism, etc. However, this is all by design, so prepared readers need not be surprised by such omissions. Indeed, as the author announces in the Introduction and repeatedly reminds her readers, the book’s focus is on “the philosophy of logic” (pp. 3–4), not on the mechanics of how logical relations as such actually function. The Introduction acknowledges that historians of logic have typically either defined logic narrowly and therefore found nothing new—and thus little worth writing about—in Kant and other Enlightenment philosophers, or else they have followed Kant’s immediate predecessors by defining logic in a broader sense than we do nowadays and have therefore written voluminously on the views of “logic” advanced during this period, but in ways that relate very little to modern con- ceptions of logic.

    Advanced Information Management science & operations Advances in Global Leadership Advances in Global Leadership, Volume 14 Editors Joyce S. Osland San Jose State University, USA B. Sebastian Reiche IESE Business School, Spain Betina Szkudlarek University of Sydney, Australia Mark E. Mendenhall University of Tennessee, USA Synopsis Advances in Global Leadership collects insights from leading scholars and practitioners and fresh ideas from promising newcomers to the field. As in Volume 13, we begin by focusing on global leadership in relation to the Covid-19 pandemic. Volume 14 is introduced with a tour-de-force analysis by twenty authors on the cross-cultural differences reflected in nineteen national responses to the global crisis. The resulting overarching lessons offer useful guidance to leaders grappling with the pandemic and beyond. This volume is organized as follows: • Part 1 presents research papers, many of which advance the conceptualization and practice of global leadership effectiveness, the topic promoted in our Call for Papers. Other chapters report on novel research that opens up pathways for other global leadership scholars. • The Practitioner's Corner in Part 2 features interviews with practitioners and scholar-practitioners whose work illustrates global leadership effectiveness, by modeling its practice, development, and teaching. • Finally, the editors reflect upon the contributions made toward advancing our understanding of global leadership effectiveness and suggest future research directions. Given its focus on important and timely global leadership topics, this book is a must-read for both scholars from wide-ranging disciplines and practitioners with a diverse set of global leadership roles. The Advances in Global Leadership series, with its finger firmly on the pulse of this exciting field, is an essential collection of global leadership knowledge and novel research approaches.

  • Toward a Syntactic Phylogeny of Modern Indo-European Languages*
    Toward a syntactic phylogeny of modern Indo-European languages* Giuseppe Longobardia,b, Cristina Guardianoc, Giuseppina Silvestria,d, Alessio Boattinie and Andrea Ceolin3 University of Trieste• I University of Yorkb I University of Modena e Reggio Emiliac I University of Pisad I University of Bologna• The Parametric Comparison Method (PCM, Guardiano & Longobardi 2005, Longobardi & Guardiano 2009) is grounded on the assumption that syntactic parameters are more appropriate than other traits for use as comparanda for his­ torical reconstruction, because they are able to provide unambiguous correspon­ dences and objective measurements, thus guaranteeing wide-range applicability and quantitative exactness. This article discusses a set of experiments explicitly designed to evaluate the impact of parametric syntax in representing historical relatedness, and performed on a selection of26 contemporary Indo-European varieties. The results show that PCM is in fact able to correctly identify genea­ logical relations even from modern languages only, performing as accurately as lexical methods, and that its effectiveness is not limited by interference effects such as 'horizontal' transmission. PCM is thus validated as a powerful tool for the analysis of historical relationships not only on a long-range perspective (as suggested by Longobardi & Guardiano 2009), but even on more focused, though independently well-known domains. Keywords: Parametric Comparison Method, historical reconstruction, syntactic distances, quantitative phylogenies, nominal domain 1 . Introduction The historical classification of Indo-European languages is traditionally based on the inspection oflexical entities (roots and grammatical morphemes) and ofsound laws connecting cognate words crosslinguistically. In contrast, syntactic struc­ tures have rarely been regarded as encoding relevant genealogical information. Such supposed lack of parallelism between syntactic and lexical classification was most explicitly challenged in Longobardi & Guardiano (2009).

  • Historical Linguistics and Cognitive Science
    5 Historical Linguistics and Cognitive Science Philip Baldi 1 2 & Paola Eulalia Dussias1 (1 Penn State University) (2 University of Cagliari) Abstract In this paper we investigate possible links between historical linguistics and cognitive science, or theory of the mind. Our primary goal is to demonstrate that historically documented processes of a certain type, i.e. those relating to semantic change and grammaticalization, form a unified theoretical bundle which gives insight into the cognitive processes at work in language organization and evolution. We reject the notion that historical phenomena are excluded from cognitive speculation on the grounds that they are untestable. Rather, we argue for an extension of Labov’s uniformitarian doctrine, which states “that the same mechanisms which operated to produce the large-scale changes of the past may be observed operating in the current changes taking place around us.” (Labov, 1972:161). This principle is transferable to the current context in the following way: first, language as a system is no different today than it was millennia ago, easily as far back as diachronic speculation is likely to take us; and second, the human brain is structurally no different today from the brain of humans of up to ten thousand years ago. The cognitive- linguistic parallelism between the past and the present makes speculation possible, in this case about code- switching, even if it is not testable in the laboratory. It further allows us to make forward and backward inferences about both language change and its cognitive underpinnings. Keywords: historical linguistics, cognitive science, code-switching, semantic change, grammaticalization 1.
