La integración de la aspectualidad como categoría semántico-funcional en la lingüística española
(2019)
The notion of ‘epiphenomenon’ is usually used to exclude certain
aspects of a scientific object because they are considered to be deduced from others. In linguistics, restrictions of the research object were made, invoking the notion of ‘epiphenomenon’, which was partially done with a polemical attitude, and was always responded to polemically. The best-known definition of languages as an epiphenomenon is that proposed by Chomsky, who declared that the specific realisations of language do not warrant scientific attention, but there were early relegations of properties of individual languages to the domain of an epiphenomenon of grammar, to the domain of an art and not a science. These relegations from a certain point of abstraction did advance theories of language, even though they took a point of abstraction that did not correspond to the complexity of language.
Le centenaire de la publication du Cours de linguistique générale (1916) de Ferdinand de Saussure nous a invité à reconsidérer l’importance de cet ouvrage et le rôle de son auteur pour la fondation d’une linguistique intégrée dans une sémiologie. Il n’y a aucun doute que cet auteur fut extrêmement important pour le développement de la linguistique structurale en Europe et qu’avec son concept du signe linguistique il a fait œuvre de pionnier pour le tournant sémiologique. Mais l’accueil favorable d’une théorie dans le milieu scientifique ne s’explique pas seulement par sa qualité intérieure, mais par plusieurs conditions extérieures. Ces conditions seront analysées sur trois plans: (1) l’arrivée de la méthode des néogrammairiens à ses limites qui incitait alors à l’étude de l’unité du signifiant et du signifié; (2) la simplification et l’outrance de la pensée structurale dans le Cours, publié en 1916 par Charles Bally et Albert Sechehaye et (3) la préparation de la réception de la pensée sémiologique par plusieurs travaux parallèles.
El orden de las palabras era un tema muy discutido en los siglos XVII y XVIII en toda Europa. En el siglo XVIII se multiplicaron las objeciones contra la teoría del orden natural, aducidas por gramáticos, filósofos y literatos, y apoyadas por deliberaciones sobre la interdependencia entre el lenguaje y el pensamiento y reflexiones estéticas.
En esta contribución se describirán las tendencias generales de la discusión europea antes de pasar a su recepción y su desarrollo en España. En esta versión abreviada nos limitaremos al ejemplo de un manuscrito de Luis Marcelino Pereira (1754-1811) para exponer su argumentación sobre el orden de las palabras, pero en la versión
más desarrollada nos ocuparemos del tratamiento del orden de las palabras en varias gramáticas castellanas hasta Andrés Bello (1781-1865). Pereira indica en su manuscrito [1798-1799] que el orden fijo del inglés y del francés dependería del uso obligatorio del pronombre sujeto en estas lenguas. En español se puede omitir este pronombre, es posible invertir el orden de las palabras, teniendo en cuenta la intencionalidad del hablante. Tales ideas se destacan desde la perspectiva actual, pero hay que contextualizarlas y explicar su aparición en su tiempo.
In this paper evidential and modal adverbs will be studied, such as French apparemment, évidemment, visiblement, Italian apparentemente, evidentemente, ovviamente, and Spanish aparentemente, evidentemente and visiblemente. The development of their signification will be discussed, including German adverbs like offensichtlich. In these means of expression, the functional-semantic categories evidentiality and epistemic modality seem to overlap: on the one hand, they are used if the state of affairs talked about cannot be verified, that is, if there is still a moment of insecurity concerning the transmitted information. Then adverbials with a special structure (preposition + article + nominal form of a verb) will be analysed, and we will examine if they behave in the same way.
The assumption of linguistics relativity and the definition of languages as epiphenomena are certainly known as two contradictory positions from the last century. But I will start my discussion of them in the period of their appearance and then use this as a basis to evaluate the heuristic value of these positions in present day linguistics. I will start with the definition of language as an epiphenomenon and then I will go on with the linguistic relativity.

Definit oder indefinit?
(2018)
In 1916, three years after the death of Ferdinand de Saussure, the Cours de linguistique générale (CLG) was published in Geneva. This foundational work marked the beginning of a discipline that has profoundly influenced the development of the humanities ever since.
What sources influenced the CLG? Do the main concepts of this seminal work have the same validity today as they did in 1916? How has the recent development of language sciences influenced its reception? How does this text account for meaning and communication within the context of speech (parole)?
In order to explore these questions, one hundred years after the publication of Ferdinand de Saussure's seminal work on General Linguistics, Polis--The Jerusalem Institute of Languages and Humanities held an interdisciplinary conference that gathered 14 international specialists from various disciplines: general linguistics, pragmatics, philology, dialectology, translation studies, terminology, and philosophy.
The first section of this work reassesses the sources and further influence of the CLG on modern linguistics. The book's second part discusses some of the main concepts and dichotomies of the CLG (constitution of the linguistic method, arbitrariness of sign, main dichotomies), under the light of both the original manuscripts and recent linguistic developments (influence of dialectology or translation studies). The third and last part handles the pragmatic and semantic dimensions of language, suggesting new avenues of reflection that could not yet have been fully taken into account within the CLG itself.
Uniting 14 scholarly articles, together with an introduction, an index locorum and a collective bibliography, this volume hopes to encourage readers with its reappraisal and reinterpretation of Saussure's ground-breaking work and thus contribute to the future development of linguistics and humanities.
Die Beiträge des vorliegenden Bandes tragen der Multidimensionalität und Multifunktionalität parenthetischer Einschübe Rechnung, die die internationale linguistische Forschung in den letzten Jahrzenten herausgearbeitet hat. In mehrheitlich korpusgestützten Untersuchungen wird gesprochenes und geschriebenes Deutsch sowie Deutsch kontrastiv zu romanischen Sprachen analysiert.
