Empirical Research into Modification Structure in Japanese

[[abstract]]日文的主要成分為主語與述語，然而修飾關係在句子的構造中也具有一定程度的決 定性因素，因此目前可以看到不少有關日語修飾構造的研究。這種修飾關係和文體論其 實也有相當的關係，只是從現代日文中來看這樣修飾關係時，到底是在何時、如何的產 生的這種觀點所做的研究幾乎看不到。日本語史當中普遍地認為，平安時代假名所寫成 的散文和韻文受到了佛教典籍及漢籍文體的莫大影響後，才漸漸形現今的文章型態。並 且，從一直以來和文中所見的情緒性文章轉化成縑倉時代以後的和漢混交文中所見的論 理性文章的過程中，當中修飾構造也產生了變化的可能性相信是很難加以否認的。 這樣的變化極有可能是日文的文體，由利用語順與連體修飾的句子連結方式，轉變 成以述語為句子中心所在，利用格關係表示或是連用修飾來構成日文的句子。因此，本 研究中將考察的重點放在連體修飾和連用修飾，相信將有助於將日文中有關修飾構造的 發展過程加以明朗化。所以，本研究中將以中古到中世以及現代日文為探討資料，解開 日文中修飾構造的演變過程。 本研究雖然重視的是修飾關係的構成關係，但對於被修飾成分的述語動詞句意思上 的考察應該也會有所助益，因此希望除了可以將修飾構造的歷史變遷明朗化以外，也能 對於現代日語動詞述語句的意思研究上提供有參考性的意見。[[abstract]]Because a Japanese sentence becomes a factor that generating character related to the modification decides the main element and the relations sentence structure except that the subject and the predicate that becomes a principal ingredient become the generation elements of the sentence, Ron of a Japanese modification structure has been increased. However, the research considered from the viewpoint when how it approved is not seen as for the modification structure of a present age Japanese sentence at all though this becomes stylistics and a problem of related. In a Japanese history, it is said that today's sentences will have been formed by the prose and verse by the Japanese syllabary at the Heian era while receiving a big influence to the style of Buddhist scriptures and the Chinese book. And, the possibility that the modification structure of a Japanese sentence changes cannot be denied in the transition processes to logical sentences seen from emotional sentences seen in Japanese till then in the Wa mixture sentence since the Kamakura age. It is to be expected in a Japanese style that changes into the method to make the predicate a nucleus from a word order and connected method of the sentence using an attributive modification etc. by the case display and the modification of taking continuously and to compose the sentence. Therefore, it was thought that it was a method by which placing a modification of taking continuously and an attributive modification in the device of the viewpoint in this research was able to clarify the development process of the modification structure of a Japanese sentence empirically. Then, I want to clarify the transition of the modification structure in a Japanese sentence empirically by examining material from the Middle Ages to the Middle Ages and material modern Japanese in this research. Moreover, consideration related to the modification that values the ideal way of the relation composition of this research has the possibility of connecting with the search for meaning character of the predicate phrasal verb that is the element to be modified. It is thought that a lot of findings fed back to the research of the meaning of the verb predicate sentence of a present age Japanese sentence are offered.[[note]]NSC96-2411-H327-00
