    Diachronic emergence of German universal concessive conditionals with wh-clause-initial marking

    No full text
    These are the data analysed in Chapter 7 of Vander Haegen's dissertation entitled "Konstruktionsgrammatik und Variation. Eine Mikrotypologie universaler Irrelevanzgefüge im Gegenwartsdeutschen" (for a full reference, see "Related Publication" metadata field). The dataset contains German construction types in which an expression of irrelevance such as "egal", "gleichgültig" or "wurscht" (all: 'no matter') is followed by the wh word "was" 'what' or "wer" 'who', including the oblique forms of the latter ("wessen" 'whose', "wem" 'to.whom', "wen" 'whom'). The construction types under scrutiny can be arranged along a cline with two end points, illustrated in 1. and 2. below: Es ist egal, was ich bin, ich bin ich. 'It doesn't matter who I am, I am me.' Lit.: 'It is no.matter who ...' Egal was ich bin, ich bin ich. 'No matter who I am, I am me.' In 1., the irrelevance expression "egal" 'no matter' appears as a predicative within a copular clause that embeds a wh interrogative. The copular clause is paratactically linked to the clause 'I am me'. In 2., however, the irrelevance expression functions as the introduction to an adverbial subclause, which is hypotactically linked to the clause 'I am me'. The construction type in 1. will henceforth be referred to as a "clause complex with an irrelevance predicate" (cf. Leuschner 2006: 77); the construction type in 2. is known as a "universal concessive conditional" (or UCC for short, cf. inter alia Haspelmath/König 1998: 563f.). The dataset was compiled in the context of a doctoral dissertation project which sought to, inter alia, trace the macro- and microdiachronic emergence of German UCCs as in 2. from clause complexes with irrelevance predicates as in 1. To this end, two samples were exported: a macrodiachronic sample covering the time period 1609–1948 and a microdiachronic one covering the time period 1947–2018. The macrodiachronic sample consists of N = 1463 tokens from the DWDS historical metacorpus; the macrodiachronic sample consists of N = 24,113 tokens from the German Reference Corpus DeReKo that were originally collected by Vander Haegen (2023). The full samples (including the corpus data) and the samples including only ID numbers and annotations (to facilitate processing with statistical software) are shared in four separate .csv-files. An R Markdown file with the data analysis and an html file with the R code and output are shared as well. </p

    Diary Entry of Geisje Vander Haar Visscher

    Full text link
    Geisje Vander Haar Visscher\u27s diary contains an entry on page 13, in which she made a reference to both Albertus C. Van Raalte and to Mrs. Christina Van Raalte. An entry for 1849 on p. 10 said that the Van Raaltes often came to visit the Vander Haars. The 1856 reference is about the High School and bringing it into a better condition. This is a reference to the Pioneer School. She also said Mr. Van Vleck had come to the school. She thought that Mrs. Van Vleck was a lovely person. The Vander Haar apparently got to know the Van Vlecks well.https://digitalcommons.hope.edu/vrp_1850s/1334/thumbnail.jp
