结构主义语言学思想与语法化理论

The Thought of Structuralism and the Grammaticalization Theory

结构主义思想同语法化理论之间存在着原则分歧:前者主张语言(语法)系统的自主性和共时性,后者则强调语法系统受制于人类的认知过程、并且经过历史演变而形成;正是因为这些原则分歧,结构主义流派同语法化研究在时期分布上几乎是相互排斥的;但是,在结构主义经典著作中是存在着一些语法化思想的萌芽的。

This paper evaluates the grammaticalization theory from the structuralism＇s point of view, and points out the principal divergence between them： synchronic and autonomous grammatical system on the structuralism side and diachronic and dependent one on the other side. The divergence resulted in period complementary distribution between the two doctrine schools. Finally there are some opinions that are accordence with the grammaticalization theory in the structuralism classic works.
