Chères et chers collègues,

Nous avons le plaisir d’attirer votre attention sur la parution la semaine dernière du collectif “Adverbs and Adverbials:Categorial Issues”, chez De Gruyter (TiLSM vol. 371), coordonné par Olivier Duplâtre (Sorbonne Université) et moi-même, qui rassemble des études sur la catégorisation et la typologie fonctionnelle des adverbes et adverbiaux, essentiellement dans les langues romanes et germaniques, mais avec des incursions contrastives vers le chinois et le grec moderne:

Voici le mini-résumé de quatrième de couverture:

Adverbs seem to raise unsolvable issues for theories of word-classes, both crosslinguistically and language-internally. The contributions in this volume all address this categorial problem from a variety of formal and functional points of view. In the first part, current definitions of the class for Romance and Germanic languages are being questioned and improved, drawing on data from English, German and Italian. The second part is devoted to adverbial scope in Romance (French, Italian and Brazilian Portuguese), Germanic, Modern Greek and Chinese, under special consideration of modal adverbs, subject-oriented manner adverbs and domain adverbs and adverbials. Syntactic and semantic relationships appear to lay the ground for a robust and fine-grained functional definition of adverbs and adverbials.
