Some Systems of Substitution Correlations in Modern American English (Janua Linguarum. Series Maior)

It should be observed, however, that logicians, by their notations, have come to some of the same conclusions that linguists have come to. Quine has pointed out, for example, that the logician's notation shows up the definite nature of the personal pronouns, even when their antecedents are indefinite terms, as in He had a book but he lost it, where the antecedent a book is indefinite and the pronoun it is definite. See W. V. Quine, "Logic as a Source of Syntactical Insights", in Structure of Language and Its Mathematical Aspects, ed. Roman Jakobson ( = Proceedings of Symposia in Applied Mathematics, XII) (Providence, R. I., American Mathematical Society, 1961), pp. 1-5. But see § 4.67 for a discussion of the label "definite". 24 The first chapter reviews the studies of others. The second chapter outlines the investigative framework of the present study. The third, fourth, and fifth chapters present a description of some of the subsystems of predicatival, nominal, and modifier substitution in modern American English. The sixth and last chapter offers a comparison of predicatival substitutes in English and in selected Asian and Pacific languages.-------------------- PREFACE TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES 1.
