Resumo: |
In a functional perspective combined to the cognitive perspective of mental spaces, this study focuses on language use as a guidepost to the structure of human conceptual system. the main goal of this research is to verify how grammatical relations are held within the adverbial zone of causalities and, based on that, configure the mental spaces network evoked by these constructions. the specific goals of this project are verifying and analyzing: a) the conceptual connection between the categories of cause and concession; b) the linguistic elements in the construal of the connective and its mental spaces configuration; c) the usage of connectives relative to conceptual domains (content, epistemic, speech act and metalinguistic); d) the usage of tense and mood related to specific connectives and how these categories configure mental spaces; e) the order in these adverbial constructions. based on the list provided by neves (2000), it were selected three adverbial conjunctions in each domain: in the causal domain, já que, uma vez que and visto que; in the concessive domain, ainda que, mesmo que, se bem que. in this study, the corpus came from spoken and written language data available at corpus do português. the analyses considered the following points: (i) the morphosemantic nature of the causal and concessive connectives; (ii) the order of the clauses in the adverbial constructions; (iii) the tense and mood correlations in these constructions; (iv) the presence of traits of (inter)subjectivity in these constructions. these analyses converged on the main hypothesis that the connective used to express causality or concessivity particularizes the relation between adverbial and matrix clause. Regarding specific goals, it was found that: a) the conceptual connection between causality and concessivity lies in more fundamental notions of force dynamics; b) the lexical base of the connectives bears relation to categorial properties of causality and concessivity; c) the connectives show preference for conceptual domains, even though they are pragmatically ambiguous; d) the tense and mood correlations concessive and causal constructions serve to more general functions of signaling epistemic stance and mental spaces embedding; e) the order in these constructions is motived and constrained by the sematic and discursive functions of the adverbial clause. this study revealed that structural complexity in these constructions is a consequence of their semantic and pragmatic complexity with respect to their semantic-pragmatic functions in discourse and with respect to the mental spaces network configuration. |
