The architecture of the human language faculty has been one of the main foci of the linguistic research of the last half century. This branch of linguistics, broadly known as Generative Grammar, is concerned with the formulation of explanatory formal accounts of linguistic phenomena with the ulterior goal of gaining insight into the properties of the 'language organ'. The series comprises high quality monographs and collected volumes that address such issues. The topics in this series range from phonology to semantics, from syntax to information structure, from mathematical linguistics to studies of the lexicon.

Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,0, University of Freiburg (English Department), course: The Syntax and Semantics of the English Verb Phrase, language: English, abstract: The term ‘ergativity’ is used to describe a grammatical pattern in which there is a formal parallel between the object of a transitive clause and the subject of an intransitive clause. The subject of the transitive clause, however, is treated differently. Dixon, in his standard survey of ergativity, uses the following symbols for these three elements: S = intransitive subject, A = transitive subject, and O = transitive object (1994:6). Initially, the term ‘ergativity’ was only associated with case marking on constituents of a noun phrase. Manning summarises this as folllows: “The more patient-like argument of a transitive verb appears in the same absolutive case as the single argument of an intransitive verb, while the more agent-like argument of a transitive verb is marked differently, in what is known as the ergative case” (1996 : 3). Thus, ergativity is the counterpiece to accusativity, where one case is employed for the intransitive (S) and the transitive subject (A) (nominative) and another case marks the transitive object (O) (accusative). The term ‘ergativity’ derives from the Greek words ergon ‘work, deed’ and ergátēs ‘doer (of an action)’ (Bussmann 1996 : 151) and thus relates to the active – the “more agent-like” – member of the pair involved in a transitive structure. Dixon states that the first use of this term was in 1912 in a study on the Dagestanian language Rutul (1994 : 3).

Der altgermanischen Sprachen Gotisch, Altnordisch und Altsächsisch bis hin zu den modernen Sprachen Niederländisch, Englisch und Deutsch als Datenquellen bedienen sich die in diesem Buch erscheinenden Beiträge zur historischen Verbmorphologie. Besondere Berücksichtigung finden Themen wie die Ursprünge der starken und schwachen Verben, die Entwicklung grammatischer Kategorien im Bereich Tempus-Aspekt-Modus und sowohl deren morphologischen bzw. syntaktischen Markierung als auch deren Implikationen für die Semantik der Verbalphrase. Die Aufsätze gehen über die Beschreibung der Phänomene hinaus, indem sie sich theoretischen Fragen stellen, ohne daß sich das Buch jedoch auf nur eine bestimmte Theorie beschränkt. Die Diskussionen zur Rekonstruktion, Typologie und Analogie sowie der Grammatikalisierung, Ergativität und Polarität des germanischen Verbs werfen ein neues Licht auf die diversen Formen seiner grammatischen und semantischen Funktionen.
