Benjamins Pub.,2005.©20051 online resource (xvi, 312 pages)Linguistik Aktuell =Linguistics today,0166-0829 ;v. 84Revised version of the author's Habilitationsschrift--Universität Tübingen, 1997.90-272-2808-6 This book presents a comprehensive account of quantifier scope in German. The author investigates scope behavior of ordinary quantifiers and negative, adverbial, interrogative, relative and particle quantifiers. The areas which are dealt with include: relative scope in simple sentences, absolute and relative scope in complex sentences, noun-phrase internal scope, and scope behavior of indefinite noun phrases. A theory of explicit and implicit quantification is proposed and a uniform process of scope determination is sketched which encompasses the scope of explicit as well as implicit quantifiers. Quantifier scope is a challenge to linguistic theory as it is a phenomenon which is determined by the interplay of diverse syntactic and semantic factors, which interact in a weighted and cumulative way. The factors' interplay is part of the syntax/semantics-interface, i.e., the constraints relating syntax and semantics, which are considered to be relatively autonomous, parallel levels connected by an interface of correspondence constraints.Linguistik aktuell ;Bd. 84.German languageQuantifiersGrammar, Comparative and generalQuantifiersGerman languageSyntaxGerman languageQuantifiers.Grammar, Comparative and generalQuantifiers.German languageSyntax.435Pafel Jürgen1957-1532149MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783513403321Quantifier scope in German3778225UNINA
