Reportatives sollen in historischen deutschen Zeitungen (1660–1954)

“…In his investigation of the semantics of reportative sollen in complement clauses, Schenner (2008Schenner ( , 2010 identifies three readings that sollen can adopt in this syntactic context: Although Schenner (2008Schenner ( , 2010 adopts these categories to examine the semantics of sollen in complement clauses, I find it useful to extend them to the investigation of the readings of sollen in other syntactic contexts as well, including main, adverbial, and attributive clauses. My analysis of the corpus data suggests that the concord reading, in which sollen signifies 'p' rather than 'it is reported that p', can be triggered not only when sollen is embedded under a speech report predicate, as noted by Schenner (2008Schenner ( , 2010, Diewald/Smirnova (2013) and Socka (2013), but in all cases where another marker of reporting is present, confirming what was stated in Schenner (2007: 210). This element can be a superordinate reporting clause, a parenthetical reporting clause, or the mention of an information source in the form of a prepositional phrase.…”
