Inhalt
This seminar will study modality from both synchronic and diachronic perspectives. Starting from cross-linguistic definitional issues, we will explore in detail grammatical behaviour and meanings of English modals, as well as their historical development. In the process, we will look into such diverse aspects as regional variation (e.g. British vs. American English; varieties of English around the world), regularity in language change (short-term and long-term developments), as well as differences and interactions between spoken and written Englishes. We will also consider contrasts between English and German modals; and students can contribute aspects relating to modality in other languages (e.g. their native languages or languages in which they take particular interest). Parts of the seminar will be empirical in nature and therefore special slots have been booked in the computer pool.
