Thoughts on V. Mathesius' Conception of the Word-Order System in English Compared with That in Czech)
JAN FIRBAS FEOM COMPARATIVE WORD-ORDER STUDIES (Thoughts on V. Mathesius' Conception of the Word-Order System in English Compared with that in Czech) The study of word-order was a life-long interest of Professor Vilem MATHESIUS (1882—1945), the founder of the Prague Linguistic School. At the beginning of his academic career, he took it up in a series of articles (Slvdie), pursuing it later in a number of further papers (see Soupis), the last of which appealed three years before his death. It presented a summary of his researches into the word order of English as compared with that of Czech. It is this last paper of Prof. M., entitled Ze srovndvacich sludii slovoslednych (From Comparative Word-Order Studies), that will be the starting point of the present discussion. (1) Endeavouring to continue in Prof. M.'s word-order studies, wc propose to examine the solutions and suggestions offered by it. We should like to do so in the light of our own researches as well as of those of others, and in this way to survey the field that has been covered by these researches since the publication of the paper almost a quarter of a century ago. We do not, however, intend to submit an exhaustive treatment of all the problems touched upon'by Prof. M. It is the general conception of his paper, not the details, that we shall be concerned with here. (2) Nor can we discuss the place Prof. M.'s word-order studies occupy in the development of linguistic research. (3) Let us only briefly remark that Prof. -

Identifying Basic Constituent Order in Old Tamil: Issues in historical linguistics with Special Reference to Tamil Epigraphic texts (400-650 CE) 1 Appasamy Murugaiyan Paris, France [email protected] Abstract Why and how languages change over time have been the major concerns of the historical linguistics. The Dravidian comparative linguistics in the last few decades has arrived at excellent results at different levels of language change: phonology, morphology and etymology. However the field of historical syntax remains to be explored in detail. Change or variation in word order type is one of the most important areas in the study of historical linguistics and language change. -
Expression of Information Structure in West Slavic: Modeling the Impact of Prosodic and Word Order Factors
EXPRESSION OF INFORMATION STRUCTURE IN WEST SLAVIC: MODELING THE IMPACT OF PROSODIC AND WORD ORDER FACTORS RADEK ŠIMÍK MARTA WIERZBA Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin University of Potsdam [Final draft, February 3, 2017] The received wisdom is that word order alternations in Slavic languages arise as a direct consequence of word order-related information structure constraints such as ‘place given expressions before new ones’. In this paper, we compare the word order hypothesis with a competing one, according to which word order alternations arise as a consequence of a prosodic constraint – ‘avoid stress on given expressions’. Based on novel experimental and modeling data, we conclude that the prosodic hypothesis is more adequate than the word order hypothesis. Yet, we also show that combining the strengths of both hypotheses provides the best fit for the data. Methodologically, our paper is based on gradient acceptability judgments and multiple regression, which allows us to evaluate whether violations of generalizations like ‘given precedes new’ or ‘given lacks stress’ lead to a consistent decrease in acceptability and to quantify the size of their respective effects. Focusing on the empirical adequacy of such generalizations rather than specific theoretical implementations also makes it possible to bridge the gap between different linguistic traditions, and to directly compare predictions emerging from formal and functional approaches.1 1. INTRODUCTION. This paper contributes to the long-standing discussion of how information structure is formally expressed. Our main research question is: To what extent do information structure-related word order alternations reflect an inherent connection between information structure and word order (the WORD ORDER HYPOTHESIS) and to what extent do they merely help to fulfill independent prosodic requirements (the PROSODIC HYPOTHESIS)? The word order hypothesis is incarnated in generalizations like ‘foci are sentence-final’, ‘topics are sentence-initial’, or ‘discourse given expressions precede new ones’. -
Haplology of Reflexive Clitics in Czech
Haplology of Reflexive Clitics in Czech Alexandr Rosen 1. Clitics in Czech As units exhibiting some properties of words and some properties of affixes, Slavic clitics (e.g. Franks & King, 2000) and clitics in general (e.g. Anderson, 1993; Zwicky, 1977) present a challenge to existing descriptive grammars and grammar formalisms. This is due mainly to their complex ordering properties, involving constraints of different types – phonological, morphological, syntactic, pragmatic and stylistic. Czech clitics are no exception – in many aspects they are similar to clitics in other languages (inventory, position, order, climbing) but their behavior may be surprising in a ‘free-word-order’ language, i.e. language with a (constituent) order determined by information structure rather than by syntactic functions. Our focus will be on special clitics (henceforth simply clitics), whose word-order position is determined by constraints different from those determining the position of non-clitic words.1 For space reasons and due to the focus of this paper we are not aiming at an exhaustive and precise coverage of all potential Czech clitics, but rather refer to previous work – Czech clitics have already attracted considerable attention (e.g. Fried, 1994; Avgustinova & Oliva, 1 On the other hand, the position of simple clitics is the same as the position of non-clitic words of the same class, while the only difference is phonological (Zwicky, 1977). - 97 - ALEXANDR ROSEN 1995; Toman, 1996; Rosen, 2001; Hana, 2007). They include short, mostly monosyllabic morphemes – auxiliaries, weak pronouns, short adverbs. Example (1) includes an auxiliary (jsem), a reflexive particle (se), a weak personal pronoun (mu ‘himD’), and a pronoun which can occur both in a clitical and non-clitical position (to ‘itA’). -

Thies, Chair In recent years, developed Western democracies have seen the rapid rise of new political forces, including movements commonly described as “populist”, “nationalist” or “sovereigntist”, but also new forms of opposition against these movements. A growing body of research identifies these changes as the product a realignment driven by the differential impact of globalization on these societies. In this dissertation, I build on this research by arguing that geography plays a key role in shaping this realignment. The benefits of globalization tend to concentrate in large metropolitan areas, while the rest of the country bears the brunt of its negative effects. As a result, developed democracies see the rise of a political cleavage opposing these two geographic entities, with large urban areas increasingly distinguishing themselves from less-dense communities in their voting patterns and other political behaviors. -
