ven. 03/02/2017 Atelier Morphosyntaxe -- Imperatives & commands -- Introduction (1) by Marine Vuillermet & Nina Dobrushina
14h
ISH, Ennat Léger

Our theme, imperatives and commands, targets the study of “those situations in which the speaker wishes a state of affair (SoA) to (not) become true and conveys an appeal to the addressee(s) (or a third person) to help make this SoA (not) true” (adapted from Mauri & Sanso’s 2011:3491). Such situations are very instrumental in regulating joint activities and are highly frequent in discourse (see e.g. Xrakovskij & Birjulin 2001:4; Mauri & Sansò 2011:3489), and are accordingly associated to several interesting research questions. During the seminar, we would like to address the following ones:

  1. their tendency to heterogeneity in their morphological encoding(s) – languages vary from having or just a single dedicated imperative marker (2nd person) to one for each traditional grammatical persons (i.e. 6 forms as in Hungarian) (van der Auwera, Dobrushina & Goussev 2003; Jarry & Kissine 2016);
  2. the semantics associated to the numerous strategies available – e.g. the semantic (and morphological) impact of the grammatical person of the potential performer, or the restriction in verb types available to a specific encoding, or the existence of alternative indirect (but often highly conventionalized) directive expressions in reaction to the pragmatic specificity of this face threatening device;
  3. their origins (again, frequently influenced by the grammatical person as shown by (Mauri & Sansò 2011)).
We will also consider peripheral types of directive situations, especially the apprehensives and the optatives, which, respectively, primarily encode the speaker’s judgement of possible undesirability and the speaker’s wishes.
