Abstract:
The fourth volume of the revived series of "Travaux du Cercle
linguistique de Prague" brings three contributions (by J. Vachek,
O. Les^ka and V. Skalicka) connected with the classical period of the
Prague School, as well as papers delivered at the conference
"Function, Form, and Meaning: Bridges and Interfaces", held in Prague
in 1998. Some of the contributions concern issues of grammar of
different languages including a syntactic annotation of a large Czech
text corpus, a comparison of Hebrew conditionals with English, a
characterization of the typology of the Indo-European verb. A further
part focuses on topic-focus articulation (information sentence
structure, functional sentence perspective), with a concept of
"perspective" introduced as close to but distinct from "topic" and
with three different viewpoints on the semantics of information
structure. Two broader essays on the nature of language are then
presented, while the last section analyzes the structure of free
verse. The volume represents a contribution to the continuing fruitful
interaction between the work of the Prague School and the more and
less closely related approaches of linguists in other countries.
