Abstract

Fran k Kjorup Grammetrics and Cognitive Semantics: Metaphorical and force dynamic aspects of verse-syntax counterpoint The phenomenon of verse-syntax heteromorphy, frequently de- scribed in terms of enjambement or run-on lines, is investigated in its structural and functional aspects. Investigating the basis for the tradition of conceiving the phenomenon as a kind of counter- point, this structural analogy, being found to hold an intuitive at- traction, is analysed with a view to its functional implications: what does it imply for the contrapuntal phenomenon in terms of perception/performance to be conceived in terms of different scenarios of force-dynamic emphasis on its structurally constitu- tive terms? The four basic scenarios of run-on, enjambement, vemfica- tional pseudosyntax and garden path versification are thus analysed. Next, the investigation turns to focus on the theoretical implica- tions of different conceptions of syntactic movement as observed to relate to different conceptions of verse-linear space. An emer- gent pattern of conceptual mind-body continuity is discussed with a constant view, on the one hand, to the phenomenal specifics of verse-syntax counterpoint and, on the other, the deeper phe- nomenological significance to be drawn from analysing this struc- ture. The phenomenon is finally found as being meaningful, ar- ticulating
