Semantic role universals and argument linking

Theoretical, Typological, And Psycholinguistic Perspectives

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The concept of semantic roles has been pivotal in linguistic theory for decades, serving as a bridge between linguistic forms and their meanings. This volume explores the integration of insights from various linguistic subdisciplines, including grammar, language typology, and psycho-/neurolinguistics, to enhance our understanding of semantic roles. It moves beyond generalised roles to examine their hierarchical organisation and how these dependencies facilitate argument linking in both linguistic theory and real-time language processing. Additionally, the contributions investigate the interplay between the role hierarchy and the conceptual content of semantic roles, their cross-linguistic applicability, and their relevance to language disorders. By connecting different disciplines, this work offers a comprehensive overview of current perspectives on semantic roles and argument linking, serving as a foundation for future interdisciplinary research. It will interest scientists and advanced students across linguistics and cognitive science.
