Laien, Wissen, Sprache

Die Frage, was Sprecherinnen und Sprecher von ihrer eigenen Sprache wissen und wie sie ihr gegenüber eingestellt sind, wurde von der Forschung von einigen Seiten beleuchtet. Allerdings steht bisher eine gemeinsame theoretische wie empirische Basis noch aus. Der vorliegende Sammelband gibt deshalb einen Überblick über die aktuellste Forschung auf dem Gebiet der Laienlinguistik und versammelt Beiträge mit neuen theoretischen Impulsen, innovativen methodischen Ansätzen sowie praktischer Forschung.

Manuel de linguistique populaire

Loin de désigner génériquement différentes formes de métalangage, la linguistique populaire constitue aujourd’hui un domaine propre, qui englobe les représentations et pratiques épi- et métalinguistiques (perceptions, savoirs, discours, interventions, etc.) des locuteur·trice·s « ordinaires » ou non-linguistes – situés hors du champ scientifique ou de contextes hégémoniques institutionnalisés – ainsi que, au niveau méta, l’étude de ces représentations et pratiques. Le présent manuel envisage d’abord la linguistique populaire d’un point de vue historiographique, théorique et méthodologique : il interroge notamment la délimitation entre « linguistes » et « non-linguistes » et examine en détail les défis liés à la collecte de données. L’ouvrage explore ensuite les rapports entre la linguistique populaire et les domaines linguistiques limitrophes tels que la traductologie, la didactique et la lexicographie. Enfin, le volume rend compte des recherches concrètes ayant été menées dans le domaine de la linguistique populaire en langues romanes.

Discourse 2.0

Our everyday lives are increasingly being lived through electronic media, which are changing our interactions and our communications in ways that we are only beginning to understand. In Discourse 2.0: Language and New Media, editors Deborah Tannen and Anna Marie Trester team up with top scholars in the field to shed light on the ways language is being used in, and shaped by, these new media contexts. Topics explored include: how Web 2.0 can be conceptualized and theorized; the role of English on the worldwide web; how use of social media such as Facebook and texting shape communication with family and friends; electronic discourse and assessment in educational and other settings; multimodality and the "participatory spectacle" in Web 2.0; asynchronicity and turn-taking; ways that we engage with technology including reading on-screen and on paper; and how all of these processes interplay with meaning-making. Students, professionals, and individuals will discover that Discourse 2.0 offers a rich source of insight into these new forms of discourse that are pervasive in our lives.

Medienlinguistik 3.0 – Formen und Wirkung von Textsorten im Zeitalter des Social Web

Der Begriff „Web 2.0“ – geprägt um das Jahr 2000 – steht für die (neuen) Möglichkeiten sozialer Interaktion im World Wide Web. Die „Medienlinguistik 3.0“ untersucht die wechselseitige Beeinflussung von Kommunikationsformen und Textsorten der „Alten“ und „Neuen“ Medien. Auf der Agenda stehen grundlegende Fragen der Medialität, zentrale Begrifflichkeiten (Text, Plattform, sprachliche Interferenz) sowie die Beobachtung konkreter Diskursereignisse und Rückkoppelungseffekte im Journalismus und in den Sozialen Netzwerken selbst. Dieser Band präsentiert den Forschungsstand in gebündelter Form, übereinzelsprachlich und teilweise auch kontrastiv. Behandelt werden grundlegende medientheoretische Fragen, (Hyper-)Textsorten und Online-Journalismus, Interaktion in Sozialen Netzwerken und der Einsatz von Neuen Medien im Unterricht.
