Bergström applies diachronic typology and a redefined concept of aspect to demonstrate that Biblical Hebrew verbal forms have basic aspectual and derived temporal meanings and that communicative appeal, the action-triggering function of language, affects verbal semantics and promotes the diversification of tense meanings. Bergström’s overarching explanation of the semantic development of the Biblical Hebrew verbal system is an important contribution to the study of the evolution of the verbal system and meanings of individual verbs in the Hebrew Bible. Accessibly written and structured for seminar use, Bergström’s study brings new perspectives to a debate that, in many ways, had reached a stalemate, and it challenges scholars working with TAM and the Biblical Hebrew verb to revisit their theoretical premises. Advanced students and scholars of Biblical Hebrew and other Semitic languages will find the study thought provoking, and linguists will appreciate its contributions to linguistic theory and typology.Linguistic Studies in Ancient West SemiticHebrew languageSemanticsHebrew languageTenseHebrew languageAspectHebrew languageVerbHebrew languageSemantics.Hebrew languageTense.Hebrew languageAspect.Hebrew languageVerb.492.45/6Bergström Ulf1502844MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910795546903321Aspect, Communicative Appeal, and Temporal Meaning in Biblical Hebrew Verbal Forms3730860UNINA02362nam 22005893 450 991102617740332120250729135014.0978150177413315017741319781501774126(ebook)150177412310.1515/9781501774126(CKB)30381517000041(MiAaPQ)EBC7239184(Au-PeEL)EBL7239184(DE-B1597)667056(DE-B1597)9781501774126(OCoLC)1386705000(Perlego)4141787(EXLCZ)993038151700004120240303h20242024 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierDisruption the global economic shocks of the 1970s and the end of the Cold War /Michael De Groot1st ed.Ithaca :Cornell University Press,2024.©2024.1 online resource (xii, 307 pages) illustrations, charts9781501774119 1501774115 Includes bibliographical references and index.Disruption -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Note on Transliteration -- Introduction -- 1.
