Proto-Indo-European verbal suppletion and emerging paradigms
2008
The existence of suppletion in a Proto-Indo-European language is still a question of debate (García Ramón 2002). While the evidence for such a phenomenon has been widely recognized within the verbal system of most Indo-European languages, some scholars describe it as a recent monoglot development which characterizes the history of each single language without involving a previous common stage. According to Strunk (1977), the hypothesis of a PIE suppletive paradigm based on the alternation of verbal roots such as *es- and *bhu- “be”, or *ei-/i- and *gwa-/ gwem - “go”, must be ruled out because it violates the so-called criterium-b, i.e. complementary distribution of the forms involved in a s…
Ecouter Bernart de Ventadorn. Lecture de quatre unica musicaux: BdT 70.42 (X), 24 (W), 17 (G) et 25 (R)
2017
Etant donné que motz et sos des troubadours sont souvent étudiés séparément dans la tradition d'études scientifiques, nous allons essayer d'intégrer les données philologiques et musicologiques pour présenter une 'lecture' chantée et commentée de quatre pièces parmi les moins connues (et les moins enregistrées) de Bernart de Ventadorn, qui nous offrent néanmoins un aperçu assez représentatif des différentes typologies musicales associées à ses chansons par la tradition manuscrite.
« Leggere le pitture come fossero un libro ». L’interprétation du plafond peint de Manfredi Chiaramonte entre philologie et histoire*
2019
Le plafond en bois peint (1377-1380) de la grande salle du Palais Chiaramonte ou Steri à Palerme, « somme figurative de toute la littérature romanesque du Moyen Âge » (G. Folena), est un monument unique en son genre où se rencontrent des traditions artistiques et littéraires européennes, méditerranéennes et locales. Depuis sa découverte en 1899, il a été étudié par des archéologues et des historiens de l’art, mais aussi par des philologues comme Ezio Levi et Maria Bendinelli Predelli, qui se sont questionnés sur les sources littéraires et iconographiques de ses nombreuses scènes narratives : histoires de Tristan et Ιseult, d’Hélène de Narbonne, du Cycle troyen, d’Alexandre le Grand, d’Enée …
La discussione ortografica tedesca a metà del Novecento: le Stuttgarter e Wiesbadener Empfehlungen.
2008
The twentieth century has been for the German orthography a period of several studies and discussions which gave scientific foundation to the 1996 spelling reform. There were plenty of public and private initiatives which, by involving an constantly increasing number of writers into the debates, tried to simplify the spelling to a more rational regulation. This essay focuses on the discussion in the late Fifties and especially on two reform projects: the Stuttgarter (1954) and the Wiesbadener Empfehlungen (1958). Despite their deeply different historical background from that of the recent successful reform, these projects are of fundamental interest for contemporary studies, since they give…

The interaction of temporal-aspectual features in modal polysemy: a case-study from Sicilian
2009
THE INTERACTION OF TEMPORAL-ASPECTUAL FEATURES IN MODAL POLYSEMY: A CASE-STUDY FROM SICILIAN. We intend to analyse a number of Sicilian constructions involving the modal vuliri “want” and the modal periphrasis aviri a “have to+ infinitive”. They are used to express both modal values and futurity (Sicilian, but not Italian, lacks a synthetic future). Our analysis is largely based on Cognitive Grammar, according to which modality is a strategy of grounding, involving different kinds of subjectification (Langacker 1991; Traugott 1989), variously grammaticalised in languages. The scalar nature of grammaticalisation processes (Heine et al. 1991) also accounts for the polysemous behaviour of moda…
Spatial representations of future in Homeric Greek
2015
The aim of this paper is to investigate the space-time mapping of the future in Homeric Greek. It is widely accepted that the spatial adverbs πρόσσω ‘in front’ and ὀπίσσω ‘behind’ in the Homeric poems are used to portray temporal events located in a sequence of aligned entities that follow one after the other on the same path (Dunkel, 1983, p. 66). In such a temporal sequence, or Time-rp model, those adverbs are associated respectively to past and future events in a bipartite spatial representation of time, without involving a deictic ego-experiencer. After analyzing data from the Homeric poems in a cognitive linguistic perspective, it is found that some temporal uses of the preposition πρό…
A Cognitive Grammar account of the Latin preverb per-: A path towards abstractness.
2010
The present paper is concerned with investigating the relationship between prepositions and preverbs in Early Latin. More specifically we aim at analysing the polysemic network of the Early Latin preverb per- and the relationship linking it with the corresponding preposition. For this purpose we have investigated the entire electronic corpus (PHI5) of comedies by Plautus and a technical work (i.e. Cato’s De Agri Cultura, ), which represent a substantial sample of the oldest Latin attestations in an extensive and non- fragmentary form. This choice allows a broad survey of the formerly grammaticalised usages of the preverb, which constitutes a firm platform to gain a perspective on its subseq…
