Pieter Cornelis Hengeveld[1] (born November 20, 1957[2]) is a Dutch linguist, professor emeritus of theoretical linguistics at the University of Amsterdam.

He is particularly associated with a layered approach to the analysis of pragmatics, semantics, morphosyntax and phonology, which was incorporated into Simon Dik's functional grammar and that Hengeveld developed into Functional discourse grammar.[3] He is considered "the intellectual father" of Functional discourse grammar.[4] He is a co-editor of the textbook Linguistics.[5]

Early life and education

Hengeveld was born in Wateringen in the Netherlands.[6] After working as a probation officer in Utrecht 1980-1982,[2] he enrolled at the University of Amsterdam in Spanish Language and Literature and in Linguistics, gaining both master's degrees in 1986 cum laude and then a PhD degree cum laude in 1992 with the thesis Non-verbal predication, with Simon C. Dik as his doctoral supervisor.[1][7]

Career

Hengeveld was research assistant at the department of general linguistics 1986-1988 at the University of Amsterdam, and then lecturer in Spanish linguistics at the Department of Spanish from 1989 to 1996 and then was appointed full professor of theoretical linguistics there,[1] untill his retirement in 2024.[8] Hengeveld succeeded Simon C. Dik (1940-1995), whose final work, a two-volume presentation of Functional Grammar, he edited and saw through to posthumous publication in 1997.[3][9]

In 2013, a festschrift was published[4] on the occasion of Hengeveld's 55th birthday. In 2024, a journal issue of Linguistics in Amsterdam was published on the occasion of his retirement.[10]

Honors

Hengeveld was accepted in 2013 to the Royal Holland Society of Sciences and Humanities (KHMW),[11] in 2014 to the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW)[12] and in 2019 to the Academia Europaea.[13]

Organizational work

From 2009 to 2014 Hengeveld was director of the Amsterdam Center for Language and Communication.[2] He was chair of the board of the Netherlands Graduate School of Linguistics (LOT) from 2008 to 2009[1] and director of it from 2019 to 2022.[2] He was president of the Linguistic Society of the Netherlands 1995-1996.[1]

He is a member of the editorial boards of Functions of Language[14] and Acta Linguistica Hafniensia.[15] He has been consulting editor for Studies in Language until 2013.[2]
