It is an attempt to find a parametric account for the NP typology, and is also an attempt to provide a proper semantic theory which will encompass a variety of issues surrounding this universal lexical class: the mass/count distinction, genericity, and quantification. These issues, which have been scrutinized independently in the literature, will be raised and discussed in one perspective, i.e., a quest for some semantic universals of this lexical class. The hypothesis which I examine and defend here is that a parametric schema in syntax is provided by semantic feature differences intrinsic to a universal lexical class. The parametric feature I propose is one which determines either a quantificational or a generic interpretation as the canonical one for a language. If the CN denotation consists of a predicate which is to define a sortal object (set) and a free variable which is to provide means to quantify over the entities (Gupta, 1980), a nominal domain can be built either by taking the predicate part primitive, or by taking the variable part primitive. The former choice will yield a language with a generic interpretation as the canonical one (Japanese), the latter, a language with a quantificational interpretation as the canonical one (English). Adopting the type of nominal domain proposed by Link (1983), I propose a single, multi-sorted domain for the interpretation of Japanese CNs matched by multi-sorted variables which are selected for by verbal predicates and which determine the interpretation as mass, singular or plural. The analyses presented here have a number of relevant aspects with those theories recently developed in the formal semantics including Partee's type-shifting principles (1987), and Heim's quantifier-free interpretation of indefinites (1982). It will be argued that Japanese case-marking particles are determiners which perform some universal typeshifting functions. The quantification in Japanese will be characterized as NP-external quantification, which is a direct consequence of the parametric choice that a language makes for the nominal domain.","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_9_description_7":{"attribute_name":"学位種類","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_description":"doctoral","subitem_description_type":"Other"}]},"item_9_description_8":{"attribute_name":"学位種別","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_description":"course","subitem_description_type":"Other"}]},"item_9_subject_12":{"attribute_name":"日本十進分類法","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"815","subitem_subject_scheme":"NDC"}]},"item_9_subject_13":{"attribute_name":"NIIサブジェクト","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"言語学","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"}]},"item_9_version_type_11":{"attribute_name":"テキストバージョン","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_version_resource":"http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85","subitem_version_type":"VoR"}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"Takano, Hisako"}],"nameIdentifiers":[{}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_date","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2016-01-26"}],"displaytype":"detail","filename":"A dissertation_1-266.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"10.2 MB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_note","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"label":"A dissertation_1-266.pdf","url":"https://barrel.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/3921/files/A dissertation_1-266.pdf"},"version_id":"c51431fa-2934-458c-8c45-f762c4ac84f0"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"eng"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"thesis","resourceuri":"http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_46ec"}]},"item_title":"Syntactic and semantic natures of Japanese common nouns","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"Syntactic and semantic natures of Japanese common nouns"}]},"item_type_id":"9","owner":"3","path":["361","496"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"公開日","attribute_value":"2011-03-11"},"publish_date":"2011-03-11","publish_status":"0","recid":"3921","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["Syntactic and semantic natures of Japanese common nouns"],"weko_creator_id":"3","weko_shared_id":3},"updated":"2023-05-15T16:44:14.818892+00:00"}
