吕叔湘的“系”分类——“向”理论的中国根

Lü Shu-xiang’s Classification of ‘xì’

本文通过引证 1 987年出版的吕叔湘《语文近著》1 1 8页上的注释④和吕叔湘一系列重要语法论著的主要观点与特斯尼埃《结构句法基础》的主要观点对照 ,认为吕叔湘在 2 0世纪 40年代提倡的汉语动词“系”分类的主张是“向”理论的中国根 ,它和外国源———以特斯尼埃为代表的依存语法———都是 2 0世纪 80年代兴起的汉语“向”或“配价”研究热的诱因 ,吕叔湘先生是中国“向”

By quoting the explanatory note ④ on page 118 of Lü Shu-xiang’s book ‘Recent Works of Chinese’ published in Dec,1987 and by contrasting the main ideas of a series of Lü Shu-xiang’s important grammatical books with those of the book ‘Elements of Syntactic Structure’ by Tesnière, this article holds that the view of the classification of Chinese verb ‘xì’ advocated by Lü Shu-xiang in the 40th of the last century is the Chinese root of argument. Argument and its foreign source,which is represented by Tesnière’s Dependent Grammar, are the mian induced reasons for studying Chinese ‘argument’ or ‘valence’ which sprung up in the 80th of the last century. Mr Lü Shu-xiang is the forerunner of the theory of Chinese Argument.
