Linearization in Functional Discourse Grammar (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783111517049)

This volume develops Functional Discourse Grammar's innovative and unique approach to constituent ordering, both by refining some of its theoretical tenets, and by applying it to data from a variety of languages (including Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, English, European and South American Spanish, Italian, Tagalog, Tahitian, Tamil and Turkish). This work will not only interest typologists working on theoretically-oriented approaches to constituent order and linguistics working in these individual languages, but also, given Functional Discourse Grammar's intermediate position between formalist and functionalist models of language, linguists working in both types of approaches.
