Its primary aim is to examine uses of two grammatical constructions based on subjunctive forms of the verb\u0000 plaure (‘please’) in medieval Catalan, relying on a corpus of texts from the thirteenth to sixteenth\u0000 centuries. It is argued that the construction “plaure (in subjunctive) + indirect object + que”\u0000 (‘may it please somebody that’) in the beginning was used to perform permission-requesting directives, and later, indirect\u0000 directives, which goes against Searle’s generalisation about possible ways of performing indirect directives. Occurrences of the\u0000 construction “plaure (in subjunctive) + indirect object + infinitive” (‘may it please somebody to do something’),\u0000 developed later but used with the same function, are also considered, and all of the relevant occurrences are analysed in the\u0000 framework of Brown and Levinson’s (1987 [1978]) politeness theory. As far as the\u0000 methodology is concerned, the paper concludes that a highly comparative approach is needed in diachronic speech act analysis –\u0000 that is, various forms suitable for performing the same type of speech act in an historical period have to be examined together.\u0000 In accordance with this principle, the findings of this study should be integrated in a larger research project focussing – in\u0000 addition to constructions with plaure (‘please’) – on uses of constructions involving the verbs meaning ‘think’\u0000 and ‘want’ as well, since all of them are assumed to be suitable for performing directives in mediaeval Catalan.","PeriodicalId":54081,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Historical Pragmatics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41925368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Linguists typically treat the expression as token\u0000 politeness that does not warrant detailed analysis. However, an examination of the mediaeval works containing the expression shows\u0000 that, from its earliest recording, it appears in unexpected contexts and can carry deeper meaning. Rather than being merely a\u0000 phatic phrase, the expression has long been used as a meaningful rhetorical device. This diachronic study explores the expression\u0000 “have a good day” from its earliest occurrence to modern times and shows its potential to move beyond phatic use.","PeriodicalId":54081,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Historical Pragmatics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41457382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper focusses on a specific type\u0000 of grammaticalization process: the grammaticalization of a rhetorical construction à la Goldberg (1995), namely, a “constructionalized rhetorical question” (Bardenstein 2018) which turns into a down-toning adverbial. The particular focus of this\u0000 paper is on the Hebrew lo mi yodea ma (‘not who knows what’; i.e., ‘not of high quality/quantity’) which has\u0000 developed from the constructionalization of two earlier constructions. Initially, the biblical question-phrase mi\u0000 yodea (‘who knows’) constructionalized as “negatively biased” (Ladusaw\u0000 1996). This is a rhetorical question, to which the obvious answer is negative, and in our case mi\u0000 yodea can be interpreted as ‘nobody knows’. Most often, it is the case of “not knowing” what the future holds. Then,\u0000 once a direct object ma (‘what’) was added, it constructionalized once again into a strengthening/\u0000 intensification construction mi yodea ma (‘who knows what’), conveying high quantity/quality. This happened since\u0000 “not knowing what is to happen” can be interpreted as “anything can happen” and this interpretation was used rhetorically to\u0000 strengthen one‘s utterance. Lastly, mi yodea ma (‘who knows what’) constructionalized under the scope of the\u0000 negation operator lo (‘not’), into a versatile down-toning adverbial: lo mi yodea ma. Since it\u0000 is very difficult to negate a strongly positive construction without implying that a less positive one is to some extent true,\u0000 this negated construction became a versatile down-toner.","PeriodicalId":54081,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Historical Pragmatics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41976476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I argue that the subjunctive is a modally void fossil, persisting due to repeated usage following highly entrenched\u0000 constructions. The focus here is on the behaviour of the subjunctive in Renaissance French, specifically in the sixteenth and\u0000 early-seventeenth centuries. Content analysis of personal correspondence identified the real subjunctive usage that lies beneath\u0000 the French polish applied by standardisation. Through analysis of the structures that trigger the subjunctive in complement clause\u0000 environments, I explore the grammatical behaviour of the subjunctive. The subjunctive was routinised after regularly occurring\u0000 verbal and non-verbal constructions, strengthening the subjunctive’s position in certain complement clause environments. This\u0000 study has diachronic importance in identifying which salient forms might persist in French. There are insights into the\u0000 behaviour – perhaps the foundations – of the subjunctive paradigm in French as it stands today.","PeriodicalId":54081,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Historical Pragmatics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47233194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data from Classical Chinese and the Invited Inferencing Theory of Semantic Change, this study demonstrates that the deontic modal bi tends to invite inferences of conditionality in contexts where it is used teleologically and performatively as an indirect speech act of advice. That is, conditionality can emerge out of an interaction of teleological and performative meanings. Furthermore, three conditions are identified as where teleological, performative and conditional meanings enable the inferencing of the deontic modal bi as a conditional protasis connective. The absence of one or more of these conditions is shown to be less likely to invite inferences of conditionality.","PeriodicalId":54081,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Historical Pragmatics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43841548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, users are often challenged to find, retrieve, and interpret these data due to the unique schemes employed for data management, which could result in erroneous estimations or double-counting of emissions. To address these challenges, a system called Standardized Emission and Waste Inventories (StEWI) has been created. The system consists of four python modules that provide rapid access to USEPA inventory data in standard formats and permit filtering and combination of these inventory data. When accessed through StEWI, reported emissions of carbon dioxide to air and ammonia to water are reduced approximately two- and four-fold, respectively, to avoid duplicate reporting. StEWI will greatly facilitate the use of USEPA inventory data in chemical release and exposure modeling and life cycle assessment tools, among other things.

Evidence drawn from seventeenth-century scientific and technical writings reveals that women make use of impoliteness strategies in order to claim and delineate their place within their community of practice. In our texts, we have detected that membership to communities of practice justifies the women’s use of positive impoliteness and sarcasm devices. Interestingly, the stereotypical female weakness represents a source for sarcastic speech, as this may offer women writers a protective shield against male critical stance. Negative impoliteness seems to be potentially related to establish power relationships and position in relation to knowledge. The idea is that scientific and technical contributions should be impartially appraised without considering the sex of the author. Impoliteness appears to be a potential means of legitimising women writers’ voices.","PeriodicalId":54081,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Historical Pragmatics","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48518275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
