述補賓結構在上古漢語時期的動態發展特征 = The Dynamic Development Characteristics of the Verb-Complement-Object Structure in Ancient Chinese Period

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The development and evolution from the Descriptive Structure to the Serial Verb Construction reflects the dynamic and developing of the Verb-Complement-Object Structure in Ancient Chinese period. The developing process contains the development of semantic relation, syntax structure and pragmatic function. From the semantic, each motion expressing the “action” and the “result” is respectively located in different clauses. The “action-result” semantic relation between V₁ and V₂ is very weak because of the influence from the form. But the motions expressing the “behavior” and the “result” in the Serial Verb Construction are located in the adjacent positions of the same clause, so the semantic relation is closer. From the syntax, the Descriptive Structure connects two clauses expressing the “action” and the “result” through the “action-result” semantic relation, two of the clauses are separated by a comma, and various of insert components can appear between the two clauses. The Serial Verb Construction is composed of “action” and “result” with relatively near syntactic position. If the object is considered, there will have three combination forms, V₁V₂O, V₁O V₂ and V₁V₂. From the pragmatic, the Descriptive Structure focuses on stating an event, the structural focuses are located in each clause. The Serial Verb Construction focuses on explaining the result, commonly the structural focus is V₁, the expression focus is V₂. The pragmatic development from the Descriptive Structure to the Serial Verb Construction embodies the order recombination of the new and old information, the changes of the expression focus etc.
