Abstract/Summary:
The preposition of object is one of the most prominent features of ancient Chinese,and the position of object and verb determines the basic word order of a language.According to the theory of "residue" of basic word order,Zuozhuan,as a work of ancient times,the prepositive sentence pattern of object in Zuozhuan should be "residue" of ancient word order(SOV).With the help of the theory of prosodic syntax,we take the prepositional sentences of the object in Zuozhuan as the research object to re classify them and explore their causes.Based on the analysis of the overall development trend of object prepositional sentence,this paper discusses the relationship between object prepositional sentence and Chinese basic word order and prosodic system in Zuozhuan period.The research shows that: as the residual structure of SOV word order,the object prepositional sentence pattern in Zuozhuan can not adapt to the changes of prosodic system,and its frequency of use gradually decreases.The period of Zuozhuan is an important transitional period of Chinese basic word order from SOV to SVO.Although the vo-ov structure coexisted in the surface structure during this period,the deep structure was SVO.The research is divided into five parts:In the introduction part,the author introduces the reason of the topic selection,the research status,the theoretical basis,the research ideas and methods,the research purpose and significance,and the source of the corpus.The first chapter is the definition and classification of the prepositional sentence pattern of object in Zuozhuan.This paper sums up the definition and classification of the prepositive sentence pattern of object in the traditional grammar theory,and sums up the problems to be solved at present.On the basis of this,the author collects the corpus exhaustively,and defines and classifies the prepositional sentence patterns of object in Zuozhuan.The second chapter is the prosodic motivation of the prepositional sentence pattern of the object in Zuozhuan.By analyzing the corpus,this paper summarizes the prosodic motivation of the prepositional sentence pattern of the object in Zuozhuan.According to different prosodic motivations,this paper analyzes the internal syntactic operation process and prosodic structure of the prepositive object sentence.The third chapter is the diachronic development of the prepositional sentence pattern of the object in Zuozhuan.This paper makes an overall analysis of the corpus data of object prepositive sentence patterns in Zuozhuan,and summarizes the development trend of each sub category and the overall development trend of object prepositive sentence patterns.Within the framework of prosodic syntax,this paper expounds the prosodic constraints in the diachronic development of object prepositive sentence.The fourth chapter discusses the change of Chinese basic word order from the prepositional sentence structure of the object in Zuozhuan.Starting from the change of prosodic system,this paper discusses the interactive relationship between the change of prosodic system and the change of Chinese basic word order with the help of object prepositional sentence structure,and analyzes the type tendency of basic word order in Zuozhuan period.
