- Abstract
This paper presents a discussion of the relationship between the phenomenon of linguistic innovation and the notion of subjectification (cf. LANGACKER, 1990; 2006; TRAUGOTT, 1995; TRAUGOTT; DASHER, 2005; OCHS; SCHIEFFELIN, 1989). We propose, according to the literature, that the linguistic innovation is a consequence of mental aspects linked with the subjectivity of speakers and, in the last instance, with a psychosocial mechanism named struggle of recognition, proposed in modern philosophy by Hegel (1893 [1992]), and developed nowdays by Honneth (2004). We exemplify our reflection with an analysis of the phenomenon known as gerundism, which, according to our view, beginning with modal content, develops proximate future value, confirming the role of subjectification in the phenomenon of linguistic innovation.
