Syntax of Hungarian aims to present a synthesis of the currently available syntactic knowledge of the Hungarian language, rooted in theory but providing highly detailed descriptions, and intended to be of use to researchers, as well as advanced students of language and linguistics. As research in language leads to extensive changes in our understanding and representations of grammar, the Comprehensive Grammar Resources series intends to present the most current understanding of grammar and syntax as completely as possible in a way that will both speak to modern linguists and serve as a resource for the non-specialist.This volume provides a comprehensive overview and description of coordinate structures, the syntactic and semantic types of conjunctions, as well as the types of ellipses in sentences and short dialogues. It discusses multiple conjunctions, coordinated wh-constructions, sluicing, and sentence fragments.

"Situated at the interface between corpus linguistics and Systemic Functional Linguistics, this volume focuses on conjunctive markers expressing contrast in English and French. The frequency and placement patterns of the markers are analysed using large corpora of texts from two written registers: newspaper editorials and research articles. The corpus study revisits the long-standing but largely unsubstantiated claim that French requires more explicit markers of cohesive conjunction than English and shows that the opposite is in fact the case. Novel insights into the placement preferences of English and French conjunctive markers are provided by a new approach to theme and rheme that attaches more importance to the rheme than previous studies. The study demonstrates the significant benefits of a combined corpus and Systemic Functional Linguistics approach to the cross-linguistic analysis of cohesion"--

Este volumen recoge diversos estudios sobre la subordinación adverbial en español. Este fenómeno comprende una multiplicidad de estructuras sintácticas en las que intervienen categorías gramaticales como las preposiciones, conjunciones y adverbios, que, en comparación con otras, han recibido poca atención desde el punto de vista de la sintaxis formal. Los fenómenos se analizan teniendo en cuenta el panorama lingüístico actual, por lo que se exponen explicaciones y generalizaciones cuyo alcance va más allá de la gramática de una lengua particular. El volumen está dividido en dos partes. En la primera se presentan los planteamientos generales que han guiado los trabajos que lo componen y se analizan diversas cuestiones de índole diacrónica. La segunda parte recoge una serie de trabajos de tipo sincrónico que revisan cuestiones relacionadas con las diferentes estructuras sintácticas que tradicionalmente se han acogido como parte de la subordinación adverbial y, en consecuencia, los diferentes tipos de categorías sintácticas que encabezan estas construcciones. En definitiva, el lector encontrará en esta obra una selección de trabajos que tratan de aportar luz al fenómeno de la subordinación adverbial en el caso particular del español.

A woman glances at a broken clock and comes to believe it is a quarter past seven. Yet, despite the broken clock, it really does happen to be a quarter past seven. Her belief is true, but it isn't knowledge. This is a classic illustration of a central problem in epistemology: determining what knowledge requires in addition to true belief. In this provocative book, Richard Foley finds a new solution to the problem in the observation that whenever someone has a true belief but not knowledge, there is some significant aspect of the situation about which she lacks true beliefs--something important that she doesn't quite "get." This may seem a modest point but, as Foley shows, it has the potential to reorient the theory of knowledge. Whether a true belief counts as knowledge depends on the importance of the information one does or doesn't have. This means that questions of knowledge cannot be separated from questions about human concerns and values. It also means that, contrary to what is often thought, there is no privileged way of coming to know. Knowledge is a mutt. Proper pedigree is not required. What matters is that one doesn't lack important nearby information. Challenging some of the central assumptions of contemporary epistemology, this is an original and important account of knowledge.
