Abstract:

In this volume, international experts in negation provide a comprehensive
overview of cross-linguistic and philosophical research in the field, as well
as accounts of more recent results from experimental linguistics,
psycholinguistics, and neuroscience. The volume adopts an interdisciplinary
approach to a range of fundamental questions ranging from why negation
displays so many distinct linguistic forms to how prosody and gesture
participate in the interpretation of negative utterances. Following an
introduction from the editors, the chapters are arranged in eight parts that
explore, respectively, the fundamentals of negation; issues in syntax; the
syntax-semantics interface; semantics and pragmatics; negative dependencies;
synchronic and diachronic variation; the emergence and acquisition of
negation; and experimental investigations of negation. The volume will be an
essential reference for students and researchers across a wide range of
disciplines, and will facilitate further interdisciplinary work in the field.
