RT Book T1 Presupposition and [e]motion: the upgraded function and the semantics of the participle in the New Testament A1 Albuquerque, Roque N.

AB "Presupposition and [E]motion examines the modal semantics of presupposition in the New Testament. It argues that presupposition is the imaginative or mental exercise done by the reader or hearer to reflect, complement, or react among other features to what is being said. The book contends that the two major categories of mood, epistemic (+ assertion [Realis]) and deontic (-assertion [Irrealis]), must be seen in opposition to each other, and both together must be seen in opposition to the participle as well as to the infinitive. Ultimately, the book suggests, the importance of differentiating semantics from pragmatics, at the same time combining them within a specific context, is the key to understand the pragmatic effect of the upgraded participle"-- NO Includes bibliographical references and index CN PA857 SN 978-1-4331-6394-4 K1 Bible : New Testament : Language, style K1 Greek language, Biblical : Semantics K1 Greek language, Biblical : Participle K1 PRESUPPOSITION (Logic)
