Subject: Query : Participial Constructions


Dear LINGUISTers,

I would appreciate receiving any information on recent work on
participial constructions in German, regardless of the theoretical
framework (GB, HPSG or LFG is fine). I will post a summary as soon as
I obtain a satisfactory amount of information.
 
 
I thank you in advance,

Message 2: Linguistic 'ownership'

 Date: Tue, 6 Oct 1998 13:05:22 +0200 (MET DST)
From: Alan Firth <firthsprog.auc.dk>
Subject: Linguistic 'ownership'

I am presently working on the topic of linguistic 'ownership', and
would appreciate any references to literature on the topic. In
particular, I am interested in notions of correctness and appropriacy
as these are made manifest on the surface of discursive interaction
(e.g. in meta-discursive comments, in 'corrections' of others'
linguistic 'errors'). With thanks in anticipation, Alan Firth Aalborg
