Paths of grammaticalization of Early Latin per/per-: A cognitive hypothesis
2016
The paper describes the semantic network of the Early Latin preverb per- and its relation with the corresponding preposition per ‘through’. Making use of the Cognitive Grammar framework, we argue that the basic spatial semantics of both preverb and preposition (here called the “PER relation”) can account for the whole set of concrete and abstract meanings per and per- express. In spite of this common semantic nucleus, however, per- and per differ as to the mechanisms at work in the development and organization of their semantic continua, thus imposing a differentiated analysis at the semantic as well as the morphosyntactic level. In this respect, the notions of grammaticalization and lexica…

Synthetic causativization strategies in Latin
2014
Synthetic causativization strategies in Latin Luisa Brucale University of Palermo Egle Mocciaro University of Palermo. Latin has diverse verbal strategies of causativization, which have been described in Lehmann (forth.) as ranking along an increasing degree of formal reduction: 1) complex sentences, in which a verb meaning “to cause” (e.g. facio “to do, make”, iubeo “to give an order” etc.) governs a subordinate finite clause (e.g. ut + subjunctive); 2) analytic constructions, which include a non-finite subordinate clause (e.g. accusative + infinitive). This type is the forerunner of the Romance type (cf. Simone and Cerbasi 2001; Chamberlain 1986); 3) derivational (synthetic) constructions…
Paths of grammaticalisation of the Early Latin per/per-: a cognitive hypothesis
2010
We intend to analyse the polysemic network of the Early Latin preverb per- and the relationship linking it with the corresponding preposition per ‘through’. Our corpus is constituted by Plautus’ comedies and 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, constituting a firm platform to gain a perspective on its evolutionary lines. Our analysis is based on the Functional-Cognitive approach to grammaticalisation (Langacker 1987, 1991; Heine et al. 1991; Hopper & Traugott 1993), as well as on the existent functional an…
Composizione verbale in latino: il caso dei verbi in -facio, -fico
2016
Oggetto di questo studio sono i composti verbali latini il cui secundo membro è un costituente verbale connesso con il verbo facio. Tenteremo di fornire una descrizione complessiva di queste costruzioni concentrandoci particolarmente su quei tipi che veicolano un significato causativo, come calefacio ‘rendere caldo’; labefacio ‘far vacillare’; amplifico ‘ampliare’ etc., e sulla relazione esistente tra i causativi morfologici (ove per morfologici intendiamo anche i com- posti) e gli altri mezzi che il latino possiede per codificare il significato causativo.

Latvijas Universitātes repozitorija lietojamības novērtējums
2018
Bakalaura darba „Latvijas Universitātes repozitorija lietojamības novērtējums” mērķis ir noskaidrot, vai repozitorijs tiek veidots balstoties uz lietojamības kritērijiem, vai repozitorijs apmierina lietotāju vajadzības un, cik ērts tas šķiet no lietotāju puses. Pētījums balstīts uz Janis Cakonas (Giannis Tsakonas) un Kristos Papateodoru (Christos Papatheodorou) izstrādāto „Mijiedarbības trīs komponentu modeli" (The Interaction Triptych Model). Repozitorija analīzei, balstoties uz lietojamības kritērijiem, tiek veikta kontentanalīze. Kā datu vākšanas metode izvēlēts verbālais protokols un, kā papildus metode anketēšana. Pētījuma gaitā izvirzītā hipotēze apstiprinās – Latvijas Universitātes e…
Associations of Sleep Quality, Anxiety, and Depression with Cognitive and Executive Functions among Community-Dwelling Women Aged 65 ≥ Years: A Cross…
2021
Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the associations of sleep quality, anxiety, and depression with cognitive performance, executive functions, and verbal fluency among women aged ≥ 65 years. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 241 women (72.52 ± 3.93 years). Cognitive performance (Mini-Mental State Examination) and impairment (Montreal Cognitive Assessment), verbal fluency (Isaacs test) and executive function (Trail Making Test), Sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep quality Index) and anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) were determined. Results: The linear regression analysis indicated that anxiety, depression and age, were related to…
