| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to explicate the characteristics of subjective/objective construal involved in grammatical constructions in English and Japanese. Here the notion‘subjectivity’ is associated with Cognitive Grammar (see Langacker 1985, 1990), but the term‘subjectivity/ objectivity’has been used in different ways. Thus, first, this study has arranged and redefined the terms like‘subjectivity/ objectivity’and‘subjective/objective construal’. Then, by examining English cognate object constructions and motion expressions (including fictive (subjective) motion) in English and Japanese in terms of subjective/objective construal, the present study has clarified the peculiarities of these expressions, and furthermore, has explored the direction of the theory of‘subjectivity’(or viewing arrangement) to capture the association between subjective/objective construal and the grammatical constructions in language.
