It proposes a treatment of these adverbials which accounts for their impact on the manner of the event as well as for their agent-orientation. The analysis is developed in a case study of German \u003cem\u003esorgf?ltig\u003c\/em\u003e ('carefully') and \u003cem\u003evorsichtig\u003c\/em\u003e ('cautiously') and makes use of the philosophical concept of \u003cem\u003eaction-plans\u003c\/em\u003e. It is proposed that the modifier \u003cem\u003esorgf?ltig\u003c\/em\u003e has impact on the given goal of the agent while \u003cem\u003evorsichtig\u003c\/em\u003e introduces an additional goal of minimizing risk. The modification of the goal restricts the possible methods of realization of the action, i.e. the manner of action. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e The analysis makes use of Goldman's Theory of Human Action and is spelled out in D?sseldorf Frame Theory, including extensions in the form of Cascade Theory and the semantic adaptation of models of intention from the philosophical literature. Altogether, the formalization involves a detailed representation of actions and plans, i.e. of intentionality, necessary to capture the complexity of a number of modification phenomena. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEkaterina Gabrovska\u003c\/strong\u003e, Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf, Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 210\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 19, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42137420202119,"sku":"9783110754964","price":105.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/3750bb741f61c75f7ece74fd8731e222.webp?v=1732697488","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/agent-oriented-manner-adverbials-in-german-a-frame-based-analysis-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
