課程概述 |
This course is a survey of research on language typology and language
universals. We will focus on the theoretical approaches taken to explain cross-
language similarities and differences and the developing methodology for cross-
linguistic study. We will discuss particular cross-linguistic generalizations
in syntax, morphology, and semantics and consider various explanations for
them. We will also consider some proposed typologies that relate syntactic,
morphological and semantic features. |
課程目標 |
Topics we will cover in this course are:
1. Typology of word order patterns
2. Case marking
3. Transitivity and valence-changing devices
4. Causatives
5. Head-marking and dependent-marking
6. Language prehistory
7. Grammatical hierarchy and the semantic map model
8. Voice continuum
9. Markedness and hierarchies
10. Coordination-Subordination continuum
11. Morphological typology
12. Semantic universals
13. Diachronic typology
14. Sources of explanation for language universals |
課程要求 |
1. Participation in class discussion, including in-class presentations of
language-data.
2. Three short assignments on typological topics to be assigned in class.
Assignments must be turned in on time.
3. One final term paper (15-20 pages) dealing with a typological survey of a
linguistic phenomenon.
4. Classroom presentation in week 15 summarizing the results of your term
paper. |
