Abstract:

Taking as a point of departure ideas and principles from the 18th and 19th
century Danish tradition, and from 20th century traditions of the Copenhagen
School of linguistics, this book attempts to set up a formal theory of syntax
that addresses some of the weak points of other formal grammars, notably
Chomskyan grammar.

After introductions to the ideas of Brøndal, Hjelmslev and Diderichsen,
Götzsche lays the philosophical and theoretical foundations of his formalism,
based on a theory of universal pragmatics and on the invention of a special
kind of formal logic called 'occurrence logic', and elaborates this formal
system in detail. In order to justify the adequacy of the theory, the
theoretical apparatus is applied to the general structures of Danish and
Swedish and illustrated by linguistic material from these languages.
Furthermore, the ambition is to propose solutions to traditional problems
concerning more inferior grammatical categories like prepositions, infinitive
markers and particles. The concluding chapter of the book presents some ideas
about how the formal system can be transformed into a model of the cognitive
mechanism that handles syntax.

This book will be of interest to linguists, philosophers and scholars in
theoretical linguistics and in Modern Languages.
