Where They're Buried
This volume invites readers to get up close and personal with one of the most respected and beloved writers of the last four decades. Carolyn J. Sharp has transcribed numerous table conversations between Walter Brueggemann and his colleagues and former students, in addition to several of his addresses and sermons from both academic and congregational settings. The result is the essential Brueggemann: readers will learn about his views on scholarship, faith, and the church; get insights into his "contagious charisma," grace, and charity; and appreciate the candid reflections on the fears, uncertainties, and difficulties he faced over the course of his career. Anyone interested in Brueggemann's work and thoughts will be gifted with thought-provoking, inspirational reading from within these pages.
Discourse Phenomena in Typological Perspective
This book aims at investigating discourse phenomena (i.e., linguistic elements and constructions that help to manage the organization, flow, and outcome of communication) from a typological and cross-linguistic perspective. Although it is a well-established idea in functional-typological approaches that grammar is shaped by discourse use, systematic typological cross-linguistic investigations on discourse phenomena are relatively rare. This volume aims at bridging this gap, by integrating different linguistic subfields, such as discourse analysis, pragmatics, and typology. The contributions, both theoretically and empirically oriented, focus on a broad variety of discourse phenomena (ranging from discourse markers to discourse function of grammatical markers, to strategies that manage the discourse and information flow) while adopting a typological perspective and considering typologically distant languages.
Konstruktionssemantik
Obwohl die Konstruktionsgrammatik die semantischen Eigenschaften von grammatischen Konstruktionen in den Fokus rückt, ist bislang kein umfassender Ansatz für die semantische Beschreibung von Konstruktionen entwickelt worden. Der Ansatz einer Konstruktionssemantik soll diesem Desiderat begegnen, indem er eine Verbindung aus gebrauchsbasierter Konstruktionsgrammatik und Frame-Semantik im Sinne des FrameNet-Projekts sucht, vermittelt durch das Analyseformat der Konstruktikographie. In theoretischer Hinsicht werden dafür die semantischen Eigenschaften von syntaktischen Konstruktionen sowie ihren Instanzen (Konstrukten) im Rückgriff auf Frames modelliert. In methodologischer Hinsicht wird die...

Constructions with Lexical Repetitions in East Slavic
Repetition is a well-studied phenomenon in morphology and lexicology but has received less attention on the syntactic level. The book sheds light on syntactic constructions with lexical repetition in East Slavic languages. Several contributions address syntactic constructions that have developed in form and meaning in accordance with general tendencies found in many languages, for example, English Boys will be boys. However, most chapters focus on constructions that resist typological explanation, for example Rus. Беда так беда ‘trouble- nom.sg so trouble- nom.sg’, Ukr. дурень дурнем ‘fool- nom.sg fool- ins.sg’. .
