摘要/Abstract

摘要： 历史语用学视角下的语法化研究旨在从历时角度,运用语用学理论和研究方法,对语法化现象进行解释。本文采用历史语用学从形式到功能的历时映射的研究方法,以英语条件分词连词providing(that)和provided(that)的历时演变为例,通过描述和阐释英语条件分词连词从形态、句法到语义、语用层面的嬗变过程,揭示其从实词转化为功能词这一语法化过程的路径、机制和动因。

Abstract: A historical pragmatic perspective on grammaticalization is to adopt a diachronic approach to this linguistic phenomenon by incorporating the theories and methodologies of pragmatics. In this paper, the evolution of the English participial conditional conjunctions providing (that) and provided (that) is analyzed in the historical pragmatic approach of diachronic mapping from form to function, with an aim to describe and expound the morphological, syntactic and pragmatic evolution of such conjunctions and then to illuminate the path, mechanism and motivation of grammaticalization, which is interpreted here as the historical transference from participial expressions to functional words.
