Abstract:

مقالة حاضر به معرفی و نقد کتاب واژگان زایشی اثر جیمز پاستیوسکی می‌پردازد. نظریة واژگان زایشی چهارچوبی را برای نمایش و بازنمود دانش زبانی پیش می‌نهد که بازنمایی‌های معنایی ـ واژگانی عرضه‌شده در آن درواقع بخشی از اطلاعات ذخیره‌شده در واژگان‌اند. در این رویکرد، تلاش بر این است تا کاربرد خلاقانة زبان شرح داده شود و با در‌نظرگرفتن ساختار و سطوح بازنمودیِ چندگانه برای انواع مختلف اطلاعات واژگانی شیوة تازه‌ای برای زایش معانی متعدد ازطریق فرایندِ ترکیب عرضه شود. در این مقاله، ابتدا مقدمه‌ای کوتاه در معرفی اثر ارائه می‌شود. سپس، در بخش دوم، نظریة واژگان زایشی معرفی می‌شود. در بخش سوم، ساختار و محتوای کتاب معرفی می‌شود و در بخش چهارم کتاب در قالب دو زیربخش الف) ارزیابی ظاهری، شکلی، و ساختاری و ب) ارزیابی محتوایی نقد می‌شود. در بخش پایانی مقاله، نتیجه‌گیری و ارزیابی نهایی اثر ارائه خواهد شد.

The Generative Lexicon

In this paper, I will discuss four major topics relating to current research in lexical semantics: methodology, descriptive coverage, adequacy of the representation, and the computational usefulness of representations. In addressing these issues, I will discuss what I think are some of the central problems facing the lexical semantics community, and suggest ways of best approaching these issues...

A Montagovian Generative Lexicon

Generative Lexical Semantics aims, among other things, to model cocompositional meanings that classical Montague semantics is unable to express. This paper outlines a simple extension of Montague semantics which amends the standard compositional mechanisms for the use of specific terms provided by the lexicon, in order to account for this theory. We hope that such a logical system would prove b...

Introduction to Generative Lexicon

Generative Lexicon is a theory of linguistic semantics which focuses on the distributed nature of compositionality in natural language. Unlike purely verb-based approaches to compositionality, Generative Lexicon (henceforth, GL) attempts to spread the semantic load across all constituents of the utterance. Central to the philosophical perspective of GL are two major lines of inquiry: (1) How is...

Extended Generative Lexicon

This paper proposes an elaboration of the Generative Lexicon (GL) in Pustejovsky (1995) based on a survey of BCCWJ (2009). I manually classified the Japanese NP1-no NP2 “NP1’s NP2” construction in accordance with semantic relations between the two nominals. The result indicates the need for the expansion of GL for computing the meaning of the NP1no NP2 construction by incorporating referential ...

When the Generative Lexicon meets Computational Semantics

Computational semantics and lexical semantics have so far mostly been studied separately. As a result, computational semantics often constructs meanings with poor or little lexical sense, while lexical semantics generally only apply to simple and small phrases (as opposed to complete sentences). We present here a general framework to incorporate lexical semantics information originating from a ...

Adjective-Noun Combinations and the Generative Lexicon

The focus of the present study is on exploring the possibility that the adjectival logical or formal semantic type as outlined in Kamp and Partee (1995) determines the adjectival level of underspecification which affects computational complexity. In addition, computational complexity is affected by the process of conceptual compatibility resolution as proposed in Pustejovsky (1995). In the theo...
