Fronting in present-day English
SUCHÁ, Eliška
This diploma thesis deals with the phenomenon of the English word order called ``fronting``, i.e. the initial position of a clause constituent other than the subject in the sentence. The introductory part is based on the relevant linguistic literature available, a separate section is devoted to the initial position of negative expressions. In the practical part of the thesis the author examines the frequency of fronting of the respective clause constituents, and the proportion of the ``thematic`` and ``rhematic fronting``, i.e. how often and under what conditions the initial clause constituent represents part od the theme, or rheme, respectively. The source material for the research are authentic English texts from fiction, journalism and the authentic spoken language.
