(U Texas, Austin) Definiteness in Latin 15:30–16:15 Abraham, Werner (U Vienna) Results of the workshop Introduction to Workshop: Aspects – Modalities - Diatheses - Discourse Functions – Reference – Concepts and terminological standards Abraham, Werner University of Vienna Werner-abraham@t-online.de The introduction serves the purpose to set up terminologies and inventories of concepts that are expected to play a major role in the discussions in this workshop. Among them are: 1. What modalities are we speaking about in connection with aspect and tense 2. Is there a plausibility about the link between (in)definiteness and (im)perfectivity – mereological considerations.
Workshop 1 – Abr 127 3. What is the status of discourse functions such as Thema vs. Rhema, what is their grammatical status (“To what extent can Thema and Rhema be predicted, or computed, in terms of grammatical – i.e., formal, morphosyntactic – functions?”) and in which languages will this link be successful and in which languages it will not? This discussion will be led concretely by (some of) the abstracts sent in by the workshop participants, particularly those that refute the theses extended by ABRAHAM&LEISS in the call for participation to the present workshop. Definiteness in Latin Bauer, Brigitte L. M. U Texas, Austin blm.bauer@mail.utexas.edu In this talk I will present an analysis of definiteness in Latin, examining the various devices and evaluating to what extent definiteness did exist before definite articles emerged. As is well known, several demonstratives lost their deictic value in the transition from Latin to Romance and became definite articles. Early instances of this change are found in Vulgar and Late Latin documents. Yet the origin of definite articles in the individual Romance languages may vary as may the actual place of the article within the noun phrase. A long tradition of analyses of this linguistic development exists already, but to my knowledge no one has asked to what extent the emergence of definite articles in the Italic-Romance branch of Indo-European truly was a grammatical innovation. Recent research involving other linguistic branches (e.g. Bader 1993, Abraham 1997, Philippi 1997) has shown that languages without definite articles, such as Russian, may distinguish between perfective constructions with an accusative direct object (definite) and those with a genitive direct object (indefinite). Others may have two types of adjectival inflection as in Balto-Slavic or Germanic, cf. Gmc weak (with –n-, definite) vs. strong (indefinite) adjectives. Yet other Indo-European languages include derivational processes whereby a suffix (e.g. –n-) is added to an adjectival base creating a derived noun with definite characteristics, cf. Greek ουρανιος ‘heavenly ‘> Oυρανιωνες; Lat. catus ‘sly’ > Catonem ‘(Cato-Acc.) ‘the sly one’. Systematic analysis of defining devices in Latin to date does not exist. My paper will therefore discuss the expression of definiteness in Latin, as compared to devices in other early Indo-European languages, focussing on phenomena such as genitive and accusative direct objects, certain gender assignments, and derivational processes. The connection between aspect and modality from a crosslinguistic perspective Boogaart, Ronny / Trnavac, Radoslava Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam / University of Leiden rju.boogaart@let.vu.nl;trnavacr@EUnet.yu It is well known that there is a connection between tense and modality in the sense that the past tense may be used to express epistemic distance with respect to the Ground of the discourse. However, on closer scrutiny, there is a special affinity between IMPERFECTIVE past, rather than general past, and modal use (Fleischman 1995).This is especially clear in languages such as French, in which the imparfait (imperfective past), but not the passé simple (perfective past), occurs in a variety of ‘virtual’ contexts (Brisard & De Mulder ms.). A similar connection between aspectuality and modality can be observed in Germanic languages, as is demonstrated for English in (1).
