格的含义及其理论发展研究

The Meanings of Case and the Study of its Theoretical Development

格无疑是句法学中最常用的核心概念,也是现当代句法学中理论发展最成熟,涵盖内容最广的理论模块之一,自然长期受到国内外学者的关注和重视。格在不同的语法体系中表示的意义不同,即使在形式句法的不同时期,格理论的句法内涵也有差别。格经历了表示名词形态变化的“形态格”,表示名词与动词语义关系的“语义格”,表示抽象句法位置的“句法格”;格理论经历了经典格位理论,扩充格位理论和最简方案“格位特征”核查等阶段。这些句法意义不同,句法表现各异的格伴随着句法理论的发展而产生,同时也影响句法理论的发展。梳理格的不同意义和内涵对准确理解和运用格理论有着重要的意义。
