A semantic framework for the analysis of motion expression in French: an overview
Seminar on Language and Communication
This contribution will trace the main outlines of a framework developed the last decade (see Aurnague 2011) in order to scrutinize the expression of motion eventualities in French. The notions of change of placement and change of basic locative relation (Boons 1987) used for analyzing motion eventualities will first be recalled, as well as the categories of verbs and situations that follow from their interaction. This conceptual apparatus leads to subdivide the movement and motion domain into two macro-categories and four basic categories of verbs and eventualities/situations.

The research group on Language, Action, and Thought ---at the Institute of Logic, Cognition, Language and Information (ILCLI)--- mostly focuses on the Philosophy of Language and Mind as well as on the Philosophy of Action. Most of its members are philosophers but it also includes linguists, psychologists and logicians.
An important part of our research has evolved around Critical Pragmatics, a theory created and developed by some of us, with applications to the study of linguistic communication, and important assumptions and implications about thought and action.
During the last decade, we have received several grants from the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), the Basque Government and the Government of Spain.
Address: ILCLI. UPV/EHU. Carlos Santamaria Zentroa.
