During the 1850's and early 1860's, Iowa, the westernmost free state bordering a slave state, stood as a bulwark of antislavery sentiment while the decades-long struggle over slavery shifted westward. On its southern border lay Missouri, the northernmost slaveholding state. To its west was the Kansas-Nebraska Territory, where proslavery and antislavery militias battled. Missouri slaves fled to Iowa seeking freedom, finding opponents of slavery who risked their lives and livelihoods to help them, as well as bounty hunters who forced them back into bondage. When opponents of slavery streamed west |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Der vorliegende Band legt erstmals eine umfassende semantische Analyse der definiten und indefiniten Determination im Bulgarischen und Mazedonischen vor, den einzigen slawischen Standardsprachen mit definitem und indefinitem Artikel. Überdies ist Mazedonisch eine der wenigen Sprachen überhaupt, die den definiten Artikel deiktisch als neutral, proximal oder distal differenzieren. Als theoretischer Rahmen wird die Concept Types and Determination-Theorie von Löbner herangezogen. Dieser Ansatz ergibt eine typologische Einordnung der Befunde und erlaubt den Nachweis, dass es sich bei den differenzierten Formen im Mazedonischen nicht um klitische Demonstrativa handelt, sondern um Definitartikel. Um den ganzen Bereich der Definitheit abzudecken, untersucht Sachliyan für beide Sprachen auch weak definites. Sie kommen mit und ohne Artikel vor und lassen sich klar von artikellosen Indefinita abgrenzen. Die Verwendung des Indefinitartikels und der indefinite Gebrauch von bloßen NPs runden die Analyse ab. |
Bulgarian and Macedonian are the only Slavic languages with definite and indefinite articles. Macedonian is among the few languages that differentiate the definite article deictically. This innovative study presents a complete semantic analysis of nominal determination in both languages, including article-less nominal phrases. |
