Abstract
En aquest article es defensa que en castella antic l’area oracional sensible al discurs es exclusi- vament preverbal. Centrant-nos en l’avancament d’objecte, es mostra que l’objecte pot tenir, o be (i) una lectura de topic (England 1980, 1983; Danford 2002); o be (ii) una lectura de focus informativa (cf. Cruschina i Sitaridou, 2011) -que nomes es possible quan es l’element mes a la dreta en castella modern (cf. Zubizarreta 1998, inter alios); o be (iii) una lectura de focus con- trastiu; o be (iv) una lectura de focus verum (cf. Leonetti & Escandell-Vidal 2009). Amb totes aquestes lectures discursives diferents que es linearitzen com a verb segon, la hipotesi a testar es que els ordres de verb segon son un epifenomen de l’organitzacio de l’estructura informativa (cf. Wanner 1989; Bossong 2003; Sitaridou 2006, 2011 pace Fontana 1993; Cho 1997; Danford 2002; Fernandez Ordonez 2009; Molina 2010), mes que un fenomen estructural, com en les llengues germaniques.
期刊介绍:
This journal publishes monographic volumes (under commision) that feature research papers devoted to the formal study of languages. The main purpose of the Catalan Journal of Linguistics (CatJL) is to publish research papers concerned with the structure of particular languages from the wider perspective of a general theory of the human language. Grown out of its predecessor, the Catalan Working Papers in Linguistics (CatWPL), this yearly publication is made possible thanks to the cooperation of the Centre de Lingüística Teòrica of the UAB with the Institut Interuniversitari de Filologia Valenciana.
