Functional Approaches to Language, and the Issue of Negation

This invited lecture, attended by graduate students of English and their professors, first gave an overview of formal (generative) and functional approaches to human language, putting in perspective the similarities and differences that exist between them, and then proceeded to show how functional approaches provide a more appropriate theoretical framework for the interpretation of all linguistic aspects of such a complex phenomenon as negation.
