Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
In this seminar we shall investigate how the grammar of English helps (a) to construct concepts such as states, events, their unfolding, and the temporal relations among them, and (b) to express how speakers relate themselves and their speech acts to the processes they communicate about. In other words, we shall learn about tense (past, present, future, etc.), aspect (perfect, imperfect, progressive, etc.) and mood (reality, possibility, obligation, etc.). Although our starting point will be the present, we shall try to explain how the components of the contemporary tense-aspect-mood system (TAM) have emerged historically.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
Participants will be assessed on the basis of (a) class participation, (b) short project outlines and bibliographies, (c) oral presentations and (d) written research papers. All presentations will take place during a seminar conference at the beginning of June (June 11th, afternoon, and June 12th, all day). The conference will be held jointly with Prof. Seidlhofer's seminar. Full participation is mandatory, so please bear this in mind when registering for the course.
Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
We shall improve our skills in grammatical analysis and deepen our understanding of the English verbal system. We shall also learn how to explain contemporary grammar in historical terms and how to extract relevant evidence of historical processes from available (diachronic) corpora of English texts.
Prüfungsstoff
In an introductory phase, the agenda of the seminar will be presented and discussed, and participants will choose their topics. In the following workshop sessions we shall practice our skills in the grammatical analysis of present day English and of earlier stages in its development. We shall also practice the use of electronic corpora. During a seminar conference on the 11th and the 12th of June participants will report on the progress of their projects and attempt to make their findings relevant to one another. The final part of the seminar will be dedicated to the production of written research papers, which will be due in the first week of July.
Literatur
An introductory list of references will be distributed during one of the first seminar sessions. Intruductory texts and basic reference works will be made available in the departmental library.
