    Exclamative clauses at the syntax-semantics interface

    No full text
    Exclamative clauses exhibit a structural diversity which raises the question of whether they form a clause type in the sense of Sadock & Zwicky (1985). Based on data from English, Italian, and Paduan, we argue that the class of exclamatives is syntactically characterizable in terms of a pair of abstract syntactic properties. Moreover, we propose that these properties encode two components of meaning which uniquely define the semantics and pragmatics of exclarnatives. Overall, our paper is a contribution to the study of the syntaxlsemantics interface and offers a new perspective on the notion of clause type

    Questo saggio ha come argomento lo sviluppo della Linguistica Computazionale a Venezia con l’intenzione di mettere in luce le interrelazioni con gli altri componenti del Dipartimento di Linguistica, quelli di glottodidattica e quellidella linguistica teorica con le quali ha interagito nel tempo. Lo sviluppo temporale permette anche di legare gli eventi locali all'avanzamento della tecnologia e della scienza linguistica sperimentale in ambito internazionale
