特殊句式作格化的强弱及其类型学意义

On the Hierarchical Behaviors of Ergativization in SSCs and Its Typological Value

本文是《补语、特殊句式与作格化》续篇。作格化作为一种全新的分析汉语句式的方法,在中国语言学界仍然还十分陌生。本文在继续阐述作格化的定义、运作方式、运作环境和运用价值的基础上,提出了验证汉语几类特殊句式作格化程度的四个标准,并将其具体应用来检验它们的作格化的表现情况,得出了一个作格化强弱表;文章接着在回顾已有的研究成果的基础上,重新把特殊标志语"把、被"界定为作格标志;最后从英汉对比和汉语史的角度探讨了作格化理论的类型学价值,从而窥见作格化理论在汉语句法体系中的地位。

This paper is a continued investigation of ergativization and Chinese Special Sentence Constructions （ hence SSCs）. As a brandy new syntactic researching method, ergativization is still a stranger to Chinese linguistic community. Thus basing on the already published paper Complement, SSCs and Ergativization, this article pursues a better definition of ergativization and explores its operating mechanism and syntactic environment. Four criteria of evaluating the behavior of ergativization in SSCs are proposed and the hierarchical ergativization behaviors of SSCs are laid out, It also re-establishes the syntactic status of ba and bei as two ergativization markers, The final section is a C-E contrastive study of the status of ergativization in the histories of Chinese and English.
