Topic: Emile Benveniste


  
  Émile Benveniste - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Chapter 5, Animal Communication and Human Language, Benveniste refutes behaviourist linguistic interpretations by demonstrating that human speech, unlike the so-called languages of bees and other animals, cannot be merely reduced to a stimulus-response system.
A pivotal concept in Benveniste's work is the distinction between the énoncé and the énonciation, which grew out of his study on pronouns.
The énoncé is the statement independent of context, whereas the énonciation is the act of stating as tied to context.

 Hart, "Translating the Untranslatable"
Benveniste's central thesis is that language and thought are coextensive, interdependent, and indispensable to each other.
Derrida's critique of Benveniste exemplifies the aporias that Derrida suggests inhere in assertions that philosophic discourse is governed by the constraints of language.
Gernet quotes Benveniste's assertion that the existence of the verb to be in Greek made possible the philosophical manipulation of the concept, with the result that the concept of being became central in Greek thought.

 IngentaConnect La derivation delocutive: Histoire dune notion meconnue   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
SUMMARYThe notion `delocutive derivation' was introduced by Emile Benveniste (1902–1976) in a paper published in 1958.
However, when the article was reissued in Benveniste's Problèmes de linguistique générale (1966), things seem to have changed dramatically, in particular in 1972, when Ducrot made a connection between `delocutivity' and `performativity' (e.g., promettre = dire je promets), leading in 1975 delocutivity back to the side of a semantic reinterpretation (e.g., je trouve que).
Erst als der Aufsatz in Benvenistes Problèmes de linguistique générale (1966) wieder abgedruckt worden war, schien die Situation sich merklich zu ändern, insbesondere 1972, als Ducrot eine Verbindung zwischen `Delokutivität' und `Performativität' herstellte (z.B. promettre = dire je promets) und drei Jahre danach Delokutivität in Richtung einer semantischen Reinterpretation entwickelte (z.B. je trouve que).

For we think that the problem remains intact once the instance of the signifier has been evolved.

This policy was instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.
Does anyone know whether the work Benveniste did in his "Indo-European Language and Society" (he looked at IE vocabulary in domains such as law, exchange, kinship, etc.) has been followed up by anyone else?
Also in this book Benveniste says that he will not discuss the external history of these institutions.

 UAF Newsroom: Alaska Native Language Center publishes Haida dictionary
Serious sustained study of Haida began in the 1880s with Anglican missionary publications, mostly translations of religious material.
Prominent linguists Franz Boas, John Swanton, Edward Sapir and Emile Benveniste added significantly to the body of scholarship on the language.
Assertions by some linguists that Haida is part of the same language family as Athabascan-Eyak and Tlingit remain a source of controversy among language experts.

 crossing cultures: creating identity in chinese and jewish american literature by judith oster
Among the figures Oster considers are writers of autobiographical works including Maxine Hong Kingston and Eva Hoffman and writers of fiction: Amy Tan, Anzia Yezierska, Henry Roth, Philip Roth, Cynthia Ozick, Lan Samantha Chang, and Frank Chin.
In explicating their work, Oster uses Lacan's idea of the "mirror stage," research in language acquisition and bilingualism, the reader- response theories of Iser and Wimmers, and the identity theories of Charles Taylor, Emile Benveniste, and others.
Oster provides detailed analyses of mirrors and doubling in bicultural texts; the relationships between language and identity and between language and culture; and code-switching and interlanguage (English expressed in a foreign syntax).

 Linguist List - Book Information   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The objective of this book is to better acquaint English-speaking linguistics with a corpus of texts hitherto untranslated, containing the cognitive-based research in formal linguistics of one of the most important theoreticians in the field: Antoine Culioli (b.
Culioli's viewpoint is grounded in Emile Benveniste's (1902-1976) revolutionary answer to Saussure's opposition between competence (langue) and performance (parole) captured in the idea of Enonciation, in which the relationship between an individual and a language is one of appropriation.
The translation has been prepared to provide the reader with as obstacle-free a path as one can clear to a theory that requires, and indeed commands, a very close, attentive reading.

My dissertation explored temporal structures in Robert Frost's lyric poems, focusing on the poems that create a sense of timelessness, and how this effect relates to the discursive nature of lyric poetry.
I am on sabbatical for Winter/Spring 2006, and so I'm immersing myself in Émile Benveniste, Gérard Genette, Jonathan Culler, Sharon Cameron, and Mikhail Bakhtin, as well as reading one or two poems by Robert Frost.
I plan to revise my earlier work and expand my research to other temporal structures (narratives, dramatic monologues, didactic poems, etc.) in Frost's poetry.

This paper will address the role of ideologemes (Bakhtin, Kristeva) in controversy, on the basis of Emile Benveniste’s theory of discourse and subjectivity, and Francis Jacques’s failed attempt to generalize it.
It will then apply this discussion to an ancient Chinese text.
According to Benveniste, subjectivity is a pronominal category, and discourse as socialized language necessarily presupposes the participation of interlocutors, i.e.
