  5. 5. The Conceptual Structure of Object Control and Exceptional Case Marking in English

    Författare :Henric Hertzman; Nils-Lennart Johannesson; Christina Alm-Arvius; Kersti Börjars; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; object control; exceptional case marking; conceptual structure; force dynamics; attitude predicates; event types; alternation; English language; Engelska språket;

    Sammanfattning : Within the framework of Jackendoff’s conceptual semantics, this study investigates the semantic properties that govern the distribution of object control (such as John persuaded Mary to help Sally) and exceptional case marking (such as John wanted Mary to help Sally) in English. In contrast to Jackendoff’s approach to control, one central idea here is that the to-infinitive complements under discussion should receive a uniform semantic analysis, and thus that control behaviour cannot be explained in terms of semantic argument type of the complement clause.
