El acto de ver

This collection of essays discusses the linguistic categorization of semantic aspects in Spanish and their interrelations with lexicology, morphology, and syntax. From a number of different perspectives, the essays study phenomena such as lexicalization, grammaticalization, lexical and grammatical classes, compositionality, argument structure, lexical aspects, and the categories of language and reality.

Este libro tiene un doble objetivo. Por una parte ofrecer un primer acercamiento a los presupuestos metodológicos más relevantes para el desarrollo de una teoría lingüística así como de las herramientas que puede utilizar el investigador para interpretar los datos y formular sus hipótesis. Por otra parte, este texto proporciona una visión sumaria de los tres grandes paradigmas que han definido la investigación lingüística en el último siglo: el formalismo, el cognitivismo y el funcionalismo.

This study focuses on the polyfunctionality of discourse markers derived from verbs of motion in Spanish. Based on an extensive corpus of spoken language it provides a detailed analysis of the association between their functional behavior and their concrete and formal expression (position, prosody, combinations). In line with the cognitive approach, the investigation also explores the link between the pragmatic uses of the markers and the conceptualization of their lexical bases (the verb forms). The findings stress the importance of an integrated approach to the description of markers.
