A new architecture for functional grammar

En savoir plus sur le livre

This volume represents a significant advancement in Simon Dik's final theory (1997), laying the groundwork for the evolution of Functional Grammar (FG) towards a Functional Discourse Grammar. It addresses the dual challenge of defining the interface between discourse and grammar while detailing the expression rules that connect semantic representation with morphosyntactic form. Kees Hengeveld's opening chapter outlines a new architecture for FG, preserving traditional elements while incorporating recent insights. Subsequent chapters refine and develop Hengeveld's framework, utilizing data from various languages and theoretical perspectives from related frameworks. Notably, Matthew Anstey discusses how current proposals stem from FG's history, while Dik Bakker and Anna Siewierska provide the first detailed account of expression rules, bridging the model with real-time language production. The final chapter, also by Hengeveld, synthesizes the findings, culminating in an advanced model that represents the most sophisticated statement of Functional Grammar to date. This volume offers a coherent account of FG as a theory that combines formal explicitness with a comprehensive understanding of language functions.
