This book is a systematic and structured exploration of the linguistic devices that Mandarin Chinese employs to express aspectual meanings. The work presented here is the first corpus-based account of aspect in Chinese, encompassing both situation aspect and viewpoint aspect. In using corpus data, the book seeks to achieve a marriage between theory-driven and corpus-based approaches to linguistics. The corpus-based model presented explores aspect at both the semantic and grammatical levels. At the semantic level a two-level model of situation aspect is proposed, which covers both the lexical and sentential levels, thus giving a better account of the compositional nature of situation aspect. At the grammatical level four perfective and four imperfective aspects in Chinese are explored in detail. This exploration corrects many intuition-based misconceptions, and associated misleading conclusions, about aspect in Chinese common in the literature.Studies in language companion series ;v. 73.Chinese languageAspectChinese languageAspect.495.1/563Xiao Richard611301McEnery Tony1964-290737MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910974005503321Aspect in Mandarin Chinese4346392UNINA03103nam 2200637Ia 450 991096396120332120251116173109.01-134-36081-91-134-36082-71-280-06320-30-203-01453-710.4324/9780203014530 (CKB)1000000000253491(EBL)178085(OCoLC)437079679(SSID)ssj0000308789(PQKBManifestationID)11247661(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000308789(PQKBWorkID)10258691(PQKB)11100621(MiAaPQ)EBC178085(Au-PeEL)EBL178085(CaPaEBR)ebr10094498(CaONFJC)MIL6320(OCoLC)57066292(EXLCZ)99100000000025349120040122d2004 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrRussian society and the orthodox church Religion in Russia after communism /[Zoe Katrina Knox]1st ed.London ;New York RoutledgeCurzon20041 online resource (267 p.)BASEES/RoutledgeCurzon series on Russian and East European studies ;13Description based upon print version of record.0-415-54616-8 0-415-32053-4 Includes bibliographical references and index.Front Cover; Russian Society and the Orthodox Church; Copyright Page; Contents; Acknowledgements; Note on transliteration; Introduction; 1.

It shows how Orthodox prelates, clergy and laity have shaped Russians' attitudes towards religious and ideological pluralism, which in turn have influenced the ways in which Russians understand civil society, including those of its features - pluralism and freedom of conscience - that are essential for a functioning democracy.
