Eines der hervorstechenden Merkmale der romanischen Verbalmorphologie ist der Fortbestand der zwei lateinischen Uberbleibsel -I/ESC- und -IDI-, deren formaler und funktionaler Gebrauch sich innerhalb der romanischen Sprachen um zwei grundlegende Pole dreht: -I/ESC- und -IDI- konnen als Derivations- oder als Flexionsmorpheme (oder zumindest flexionsgebunden) stehen.Obwohl -I/ESC- und -IDI- eine sehr vergleichbare Entwicklung genommen haben, sind sie noch nie in einer gemeinsamen Studie untersucht worden. Wahrend das Schicksal von -I/ESC- bei Romanisten auf groes Interesse stie, wurde die Verbindung zu -IDI- bis dato nur fragmentarisch beschrieben. Die vorliegende Studie mochte diese Lucke durch eine erganzende Analyse der "Metamorphosen", die beide Segmente in der Fortentwicklung vom Lateinischen zum Romanischen genommen haben, schlieen. Der Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf den Flexions- bzw. flexionsgebundenen Formen in den gegenwartigen romanischen Sprachen.In methodischer Hinsicht kombiniert die Studie eine umfassende heuristische Analyse mit der Korpusanalyse neuer, empirisch erhobener Daten auf der Basis von (dialektologischer) Feldarbeit, elektronischen Befragungen, (neuesten) Worterbuchern und Dialektatlanten. Die behandelten Themen verbinden Bereiche der theoretischen, historischen und Soziolinguistik.

Negation ist eine universelle Eigenschaft der menschlichen Sprache. Als primare Disziplin der Logik tritt Negation in typologisch unterschiedlichsten Erscheinungsformen auf und spielt eine groe Rolle fur die Syntax-Semantik-Schnittstelle. Mit diesem Band soll die umfassende Forschungsliteratur zur Negation durch eine Reihe von aktuellen Studien erganzt werden. Alle Beitrage beziehen sich auf Fragen oder Kontroversen, die sich mit der Syntax, Semantik und Variation negativer Elemente befassen, und gehen von der Annahme aus, dass ein grundlegendes Verstandnis der verschiedenen Realisierungen der Negation zentral fur unser Grammatikverstandnis ist. Die hier veroffentlichten Beitrage berucksichtigen verschiedene Herangehensweisen und eine Vielfalt empirischer und analytischer Details.Negation is a universal feature of human language that is inherently logical in nature, presents typologically diverse manifestations, and plays a fundamental role in the mapping between syntactic structure and semantic interpretation. The aim of this volume is to complement the vast body of research literature by offering a set of cutting-edge studies on negation. All the contributions are related to recent questions bearing on the syntax and semantics of negative elements and the variation in their form, and follow the central assumption that a proper understanding of the multifaceted expression of negation is central to our understanding of the grammar as a whole. With this in mind, different approaches and a variety of empirical and analytic details have been included in this volume.

Lejos de esa fantasía épica tradicional que glorifica las batallas y los héroes, La guerra sin ti explora la otra cara de las guerras: la de aquellos que las libran, mujeres y hombres, sean héroes o no. Una niña de ojos rojos y un grifo propician esta travesia, que comienza en la ciudad de Vinkula y se extiende por Sotreun, involucrando a personajes de diversas razas y credos. Entre sonidos de espadas que chocan, criaturas fantasticas y hechizos, el Alto Cronista nos conduce por el entramado de historias que nos muestran como se gana o se pierde realmente una guerra, y como los pequeños, los aparentemente insignificantes, son los que deciden la suerte de toda contienda.

¿Qué sucedería si desaparecieran de los escritos en lengua española todas las preposiciones? Esa tarea podría asemejarse a la de un hipotético destructor de todos los puentes de la Tierra. ¿Qué haríamos sin los puentes? ¿Que entenderiamos sin las preposiciones? Rara vez nos detenemos a meditar sobre su ardua mision, quiza, atraidos por un sustantivo transparente o por un adjetivo relumbroso. Recitamos sin conviccion su abecedario inmovil, con un ritmico y terco juego de vocales y de consonantes que se unen y se desunen monotonamente, y siempre nos olvidamos de alguna o resucitamos otras que descansan en paz hace mucho tiempo. A veces, las menospreciamos por su brevedad y no las consideramos palabras, pero tambien ellas nos dicen, porque su mundo plural rebosa su aparente pequeñez.En homenaje a ellas, hemos escrito este libro, para que viva en la biblioteca del lenguaje para demostrar que valen por lo que significan y por lo que nos permiten significar, para que se las nombre con el mismo respeto que inspiran las grandes palabras y se las use con exactitud en la oralidad y en el sereno espacio de la pagina.
