Givenness, Contrastiveness, Definiteness, Subjects, Topics, and Point of View
A noun in its sentence plays many roles, or has the potential of doing so. For example, according to one traditional way of sorting out some of these roles the noun Betty in the sentence Betty peeled the onions might be said to function simultaneously as the grammatical (or superficial) subject, as the logical subject, and as the psychological subject (e.g., Hornby 1972 ). A typical way of demonstrating the independence of these three roles is to…

LSA Golden Anniversary Symposium
Language and Consciousness
The notion of consciousness is seen as being important to linguistics as well as psychology, and specifically to the linguistic distinction between GIVEN and NEW information. Given information is suggested to be that which the speaker assumes to be already present in the addressee's consciousness at the time of an utterance, and an example is discussed at length. Some attention is then given to contrastiveness, a separate phenomenon which is apt …
Language and Memory
Linguistic and psychological concerns are seen to converge in the area of semantics in such a way as to suggest the value, for both disciplines, of ‘psychosemantic’ studies. This paper illustrates some of the possibilities by providing linguistic evidence for three kinds of memory, called surface, shallow, and deep. The evidence deals with the occurrence of temporal adverbs in English and with their intonation and order, as well as with the non-g…
Meaning and the Structure of Language
Directionality and Paraphrase
The ‘balanced’ or ‘generative semantic’ view of language is assumed to be correct, but is seen as giving rise to certain other fundamental questions. One is the question of directionality. Contrary to what has been the dominant view, it is argued here that language exhibits a directionality from semantics to phonetics, and several kinds of evidence are presented. The discussion focuses on the directionality of well-formedness, the directionality …

The Philosophy of Language . Jerrold J. Katz
Language as Symbolization
Language is viewed as a system in which semological structures, manifested in experience, are symbolized by phonological structures, manifested in sound. Other animal communication systems exhibit a one-to-one symbolization of semological units by phonological units. The evolutionary expansion of human experience was accompanied by developments through which language came to diverge radically from the one-to-one model. Shorter term (non-evolution…
Linguistics
Ethnographic Semantics
Ethnographic semantics is the description of semantic characteristics that are culturally revealing. In anthropology it has come to include a number of different types of analysis which have so far been used mostly in studies of kinship and folk science. These are contrast-level mapping, componential analysis, programmed specification, and various uses of semantic rules, notably reduction analysis. Contrast-level study is the mapping of native wo…

Internal Reconstruction in Seneca
2. Only three papers concerned primarily with the theory of internal reconstruction have appeared in this country in relatively recent years;2 two of these were earlier and later treatments of the same subject by the same author. A few additional papers have dealt with the internal reconstruction of specific features in specific languages, on a more or less ad hoc theoretical basis.3 I shall comment only on certain aspects of the papers by Hoenig…

Estimates regarding the Present Speakers of North American Indian Languages
Phonetics, Semantics, and Language
The term semantic structure is one that is often encountered these days. Some very rewarding effort has gone into the study of phenomena embraced by this term, but there is still no clear picture of the relationship between semantic structure, whatever it is, and language structure as we know it. One view, and probably the most explicit, has been that ‘semology’ constitutes a third subdivision of language, on a par with phonology and grammar (or …
