A large part of the paper is devoted to an appraisal of proposals made by Emar Maier, the only semanticist to have consistently sought to account for the whole empirical range of quotational phenomena. In the end, I conclude that Maier\u2019s efforts are unlikely to be ultimately successful. I argue instead that a particular family of theories, \u2018Depiction\u2019 theories, are better equipped to deal with the issue under scrutiny, as with other thorny questions in the theory of quotation.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_link\"><span class=\"sdm_download_button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/?sdm_process_download=1&download_id=22883\" class=\"sdm_download grey\" title=\"Hybrid quotations of syntactic non-constituents\" target=\"_blank\">Download<\/a><\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_item \"><div class=\"sdm_download_item_top\"><div class=\"sdm_download_thumbnail\"><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_title\">Adjectives and Negation: deriving Contrariety from Contradiction<\/div><\/div><div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_description\"><p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Karen De Clercq &amp; Guido Vanden Wyngaerd<\/strong><br \/>\nAntonymic pairs of gradable adjectives (e.g. tall-short) give rise to contrary opposition. This fact has so far stood in the way of reducing this type of opposition to logical negation, which gives rise to contradictory opposition. We present an analysis of these antonymic pairs in terms of an underlying logical negation, and propose to derive the contrary nature of the opposition from the interaction of interval semantics with the presence of a contextual standard, which is known to be a part of the denotation of gradable adjectives. This analysis opens the way for a decomposition of negative adjectives as containing a logical negation with contradictory meaning.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_link\"><span class=\"sdm_download_button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/?sdm_process_download=1&download_id=22913\" class=\"sdm_download grey\" title=\"Adjectives and Negation: deriving Contrariety from Contradiction\" target=\"_blank\">Download<\/a><\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_item \"><div class=\"sdm_download_item_top\"><div class=\"sdm_download_thumbnail\"><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_title\">A new look at scalar implicatures under negation<\/div><\/div><div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_description\"><p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Laura Devlesschouwer<\/strong><br \/>\nIn this paper, I give a novel analysis of negated scalar adjectives. Particular attention is devoted to three types: (1) ordinary negation with a \u2018less than\u2019-meaning (e.g. \u201cIt is not warm\u201d meaning \u2018It is less than warm\u2019), (2) negation with negative strengthening (e.g. \u201cIt is not good\u201d meaning \u2018It is bad\u2019), and (3) so-called \u2018metalinguistic negation\u2019 (e.g. \u201cIt is not good; it is excellent!\u201d). I argue that the meanings of (1) and (2) are constructional, and that they are grounded in Ducrot\u2019s (1980b: 31) principle called \u2018the lowering law\u2019. On the basis of this analysis, I give an alternative explanation of why metalinguistic negations are intuitively exceptional: they violate principles of \u2018argumentation in language\u2019 (Anscombre &amp; Ducrot 1983), rather than that they violate principles of logic, as on the pragmatic account (cf. Horn 1989). This finding is crucial for the theory of scalar implicature, according to which \u201cIt is good\u201d is said to implicate rather than entail \u2018It is not excellent\u2019. On my account, the exceptional character of \u2018metalinguistic\u2019 negations and the default \u2018less than\u2019-meaning of negated scalar adjectives can no longer be used as arguments for viewing scalar implicatures as pragmatic rather than semantic.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_link\"><span class=\"sdm_download_button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.uclouvain.be\/bkl-cbl\/?sdm_process_download=1&download_id=22943\" class=\"sdm_download grey\" title=\"A new look at scalar implicatures under negation\" target=\"_blank\">Download<\/a><\/span><\/div><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_item \"><div class=\"sdm_download_item_top\"><div class=\"sdm_download_thumbnail\"><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_title\">L\u2019expression de la causalit\u00e9 dans le langage m\u00e9dical. \u00c9tablissement d\u2019une typologie sp\u00e9cifique<\/div><\/div><div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div><div class=\"sdm_download_description\"><p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Agathe Pierson<\/strong><br \/>\nLa cause rev\u00eat une importance particuli\u00e8re dans le langage m\u00e9dical.

Malchukov et al. 2010). Le but de cet article est de montrer qu\u2019en kirundi (JD62), langue bantoue du Burundi, les possibilit\u00e9s d\u2019avoir deux objets dans une proposition sont particuli\u00e8rement \u00e9tendues et que cette langue permet m\u00eame des propositions avec trois objets directs. Les tests que j\u2019ai utilis\u00e9s pour d\u00e9terminer si un groupe nominal est objet direct sont les suivants : la possibilit\u00e9 d\u2019\u00eatre sujet grammatical du verbe \u00e0 la voix passive, d\u2019\u00eatre pronominalis\u00e9 dans le verbe et, accessoirement, de suivre imm\u00e9diatement le verbe. Dans cet article, ces tests sont appliqu\u00e9s (a) \u00e0 la proposition dans laquelle, outre un sujet, deux groupes nominaux sont pr\u00e9vus dans la valence d\u2019un verbe sauf si l\u2019un est l\u2019attribut de l\u2019autre (ces types de verbes sont nombreux en kirundi, langue non casuelle dans laquelle les objets pr\u00e9positionnels sont rares) ; (b) \u00e0 la proposition dans laquelle un groupe nominal est ajout\u00e9 \u00e0 la construction pr\u00e9vue par la valence verbale pour d\u00e9signer le possesseur inali\u00e9nable du r\u00e9f\u00e9rent de l\u2019objet direct valenciel, et (c) \u00e0 la proposition dans laquelle on ajoute au verbe (lexicalement intransitif, transitif ou bitransitif) le suffixe applicatif -ir- qui annonce un groupe nominal ayant le r\u00f4le s\u00e9mantique de b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiaire, de but ou de cause.

Nous y analysons de fa\u00e7on syst\u00e9matique la terminologie utilis\u00e9e par des ouvrages grammaticaux du fran\u00e7ais pour la description du s\u00e9mantisme de l\u2019emploi du conditionnel de reprise (CR). Les dates du premier exemple du CR (Maupas 1607) et de sa premi\u00e8re description s\u00e9mantique (Litais De Gaux 1850) montrent que cet emploi n\u2019a \u00e9t\u00e9 identifi\u00e9 comme emploi distinct que relativement tard, surtout en comparaison avec les deux autres grands emplois du conditionnel. Une fois que l\u2019existence a \u00e9t\u00e9 reconnue, sa description s\u00e9mantique a vite suivi : au XIXe si\u00e8cle, 5% des ouvrages examin\u00e9s le d\u00e9crivent s\u00e9mantiquement, au XXe, 41% et au XXIe, tous. Le vocabulaire sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9 utilis\u00e9 pour la description s\u00e9mantique du CR peut \u00eatre ramen\u00e9 \u00e0 quatre notions, que l\u2019on peut associer d\u2019une fa\u00e7on ou d\u2019une autre au s\u00e9mantisme du CR : l\u2019incertitude, la non-prise en charge, la reprise \u00e0 autrui et la non-confirmation. En dehors de la grande variation dans les termes et formulations, on retrouve aussi une grande variation dans la nature des \u00ab objets \u00bb reli\u00e9s aux quatre notions distingu\u00e9es que nous avons class\u00e9s selon leur nature : r\u00e9alit\u00e9 extralinguistique, pens\u00e9e, information, \u00e9nonc\u00e9 et v\u00e9rit\u00e9.
