A Crosslinguistic Perspective on Clear and Approximate Categorization
In recent decades, research on clear and approximate categorizations and their manifestations in language has been generating a number of studies on syntax, semantics, pragmatics, psycholinguistics, philosophy, and logic. This is particularly interesting because these two operations have formally similar realizations even in languages belonging to different groups. The existence of a large number of type nouns testifies to their productivity. If these nouns serve to both categorize and approximate, the fundamental question is that of identifying the processes of interpretation concerned, since there is not always a consensus on interpretation. This book makes it clear that there are differen...
Type Noun Constructions in Slavic, Germanic and Romance Languages
This volume is the first dedicated to the comprehensive, in-depth analysis of constructions with nouns like ‘type’ and ‘sort’. It focuses on type noun constructions in Romance, Germanic and Slavic languages, integrating the different descriptive traditions that had been developed for each language family. As a result, a greater variety of type noun constructions is revealed than in the hitherto more fragmented literature. But attention is also drawn to the cross-linguistic similarity of the new pragmatic meanings, such as ad hoc and approximative categorization, hedging, focus and filler uses, and the new grammatical functions in NPs (e.g. phoric uses), clauses (e.g. adverbial uses) ...
Discourse Segmentation in Romance Languages
This volume gathers together for the first time contributions from the most relevant approaches in discourse segmentation developed in the last fifteen years in Romance languages. All these approaches share the assumption that discourses (either oral or written) can be fully divided into units and subunits: just like sentences are fully analyzed with the help of Syntax, discourse can be fully analyzed with the help of Pragmatics. In this sense, the approaches in this volume represent a step forward with respect to the issues in segmentation addressed by Conversational Analysis or by Discourse Analysis. The research questions addressed in this volume range from the distribution of foci to the coupling of gestures and discourse units, the treatment of discourse markers or the interplay between intonation and discourse organization; all of great interest for General Linguistics, as well as for Romance Languages.
Rectification à l'oral et à l'écrit
En tant que mécanisme d’ajustement énonciatif, la rectification se distingue ou se rapproche de la reformulation ou de la correction, allant parfois jusqu’à se confondre avec l’une ou l’autre. La rectification reçoit dans cet ouvrage collectif un éclairage syntaxique, (co)énonciatif, sémantique, interactionniste et lexicographique. La diversité des approches rejoint la diversité des corpus étudiés (entretiens, dialogues en contexte d’acquisition, enregistrements oraux ou vidéo, presse, littérature, sous-titres de films, définitions de dictionnaires...) pour contribuer à mieux cerner les spécificités de cette opération linguistique et discursive. Cet ouvrage est issu d’une journée d’étude organisée en hommage à Mary-Annick Morel. Contributions : S. Baddeley, C. Blanche-Benveniste, S. Caët, C. Cance, M. Candea, C. Chauvin, C. Cortes, L. Danon-Boileau, G. Delepaut, C. Delmas, D. Delomier, D. Dubois, R. Eluerd, N. Hascoët, F. Jejcic, M. Leroy, D. Luzzati, L. Maxim, R. Mir-Samii, S. Morange, M.-A. Morel, A. Morgenstern, C. Narjoux, P.

Manual of Discourse Markers in Romance
Virtually unstudied until the 1980s, discourse markers have gone on to become a growth industry. Research on markers is central to comprehensive theories of the synchronic linguistic system as such, of the use of language in communication, and of language change. From the very beginning, linguists working on Romance languages have been at the forefront of research on discourse markers. Including among its contributors many of the foremost experts in the field, this volume not only offers substantial state-of-the-art introductions to the diverse facets of contemporary research on discourse markers, with a focus on Romance, but it achieves added value by including in each chapter original and ...
