This paper argues for a particular architecture of OT syntax. This architecture hasthree core features: i) it is bidirectional, the usual production-oriented optimisation (called ‘first optimisation’ here) is accompanied by a second step that checks the recoverability of an underlying form; ii) this underlying form already contains a full-fledged syntactic specification; iii) especially the procedure checking for recoverability makes crucial use of semantic and pragmatic factors. The first section motivates the basic architecture. The second section shows with two examples, how contextual factors are integrated. The third section examines its implications for learning theory, and the fourth section concludes with a broader discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed model.
Is language the key to number? This article argues that the human language faculty provides the cognitive equipment that enables humans to develop a systematic number concept. Crucially, this concept is based on non-iconic representations that involve relations between relations: relations between numbers are linked with relations between objects. In contrast to this, language-independent numerosity concepts provide only iconic representations. The pattern of forming relations between relations lies at the heart of our language faculty, suggesting that it is language that enables humans to make the step from these iconic representations, which we share with other species, to a generalised concept of number.
Liebesbriefe von Kindern, Jugendlichen und Erwachsenen : eine Textsorte im lebenszeitlichen Wandel
(2003)
Das Alter als soziolinguistische und – mit Bezug auf die Historizität des sozialen Alltags – als sozialhistorische Grösse ist in seiner Wirkung auf die Gestaltung des Liebesbriefs wenig offensichtlich. Unbestritten dürfte aber wohl sein, dass nicht alterslose Menschen einander Liebesbriefe schreiben. Und – Alter prägt, wie dies die hier vorliegende empirische Analyse zeigen wird, die Textsorte Liebesbrief vielleicht stärker als gemeinhin angenommen. Bereits die Briefstellerliteratur der Jahrhundertwende zeigt deutlich eine Altersspezifik der Sprache des Liebesbriefs. ...
A significant drop of the vector meson masses in nuclear matter is observed in a chiral SU(3) model due to the e ects of the baryon Dirac sea. This is taken into account through the summation of baryonic tadpole diagrams in the relativistic Hartree approximation. The appreciable decrease of the in-medium vector meson masses is due to the vacuum polarisation e ects from the nucleon sector and is not observed in the mean field approximation.
