Sprache und Kognition
Seit etwa zehn Jahren sind in der linguistischen Literatur immer häufiger Veröffentlichungen zum Themenbereich Sprache und Kognition anzutreffen. Sie erheben den Anspruch, einen alternativen Weg zur herkömmlichen Linguistik aufzeigen zu wollen und artikulieren ihre Kritik an der verengten Perspektive der gegenwärtigen Sprachtheorie. Der Autor möchte mit den Grundpositionen dieser alternativen Aufsätze bekannt machen, über die Kritik informieren, den wissenschaftsgeschichtlichen Hintergrund für eine "ganzheitlichere Linguistik" aufdecken, Möglichkeiten ihrer Methodik erörtern und Konsequenzen für den Relevanzbereich Sprache und Kommunikation aufzeigen.
Handbook of Interpersonal Communication
Interpersonal communication (IC) is a continuous game between the interacting interactants. It is a give and take - a continuous, dynamic flow that is linguistically realized as discourse as an on-going sequence of interactants' moves. Interpersonal communication is produced and interpreted by acting linguistically, and this makes it a fascinating research area. The handbook, Interpersonal Communication , examines how interactants manage to exchange facts, ideas, views, opinions, beliefs, emotion, etc. by using the linguistic systems and the resources they offer. In interpersonal communication, the fine-tuning of individuals' use of the linguistic resources is continuously probed. The langua...
The Syntax and Semantics of the Left Periphery
The left periphery of clausal structures has been a prominent topic of research in generative linguistics during the last decades. Closer examination of its properties unfolds a rich array of perspectives like the status of barriers for extraction and government, the articulation of the topic focus structure, the fixation of wh-scope, the marking of clausal types, the interaction of syntactic structure with inflectional morphology as well as the determination of sentence mood and illocutionary force to mention just a few. The purpose of this book is to collect different and relevant studies in this field and to give a general overview of the various theoretical approaches concerned with morphological, syntactic and semantic properties together with the diachronic development of the left periphery.
The Role of Data at the Semantics-Pragmatics Interface
To join the recent debate on data problem in linguistics, this collection of papers provides complex dual purpose analyses at the interface of semantics and pragmatics (including historical, lexical, formal and experimental pragmatics). Based on several current theories and various types of data taken from a number of languages, it discusses object theoretical issues of referentiality, scalar implicatures, implicit arguments, grammaticalization, co-construction and syntactic alternation in their mutual connections to metatheoretical questions concerning the relationship between data and theory.
Interpersonal Pragmatics
This new landmark series of thirteen self-contained handbooks provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the entire field of pragmatics. It is based on a wide conception of pragmatics as the study of intentional human interaction in social and cultural contexts. The series reflects, appraises and structures a field that is exceptionally vast, unusually heterogeneous and still rapidly expanding. In-depth articles by leading experts from around the world discuss the foundations, major theories and most recent developments of pragmatics including philosophical, sociocultural and cognitive as well as methodological, contrastive and diachronic perspectives.
Kommunikationswissenschaft
Ziel des Bandes ist es, in das komplexe Themenfeld Kommunikation und Kommunikationswissenschaft so einzuführen, dass Studierende angemessen und systematisch Anschlussmöglichkeiten an die vielfältigen und verschiedenen Bereiche dieses Themen- und Forschungsfeldes finden können. Die Einführung will Verständnis für das Phänomen Kommunikation wecken und dazu befähigen, begründete Fragestellungen abzuleiten, die ein Verstehen der Diskussionen in der Forschung erleichtern. Dabei wird versucht, Verknüpfungen zu Modulen in den verschiedenen Bachelorstudiengängen der Kommunikationswissenschaft herzustellen. Absicht des Bandes ist es nicht, in die Praxis kommunikativen Handelns einzuführen, sondern eine Orientierungshilfe in der sehr breit aufgestellten Wissenschaftsdisziplin Kommunikationswissenschaft zu bieten.
The Wedding Report
Traditional text types (or genres) are complex linguistic, sociocultural and cognitive phenomena that can only be analysed in flexible interdisciplinary frameworks fusing structural and process-oriented approaches and combining quantitative description with qualitative interpretation and evaluation.The theoretical and methodological implications of the prototypical text type concept which is developed in this book are explored in an exhaustive case study of a representative (ie prototypical) genre: the wedding report, a conventional type of news report published in local English newspapers. The distinctive contextual and textual features situational context, text production processes, fun...
Linguistic Theories of Humor
So this English professor comes into class and starts talking about the textual organization of jokes, the taxonomy of puns, the relations between the linguistic form and the content of humorous texts, and other past and current topics in language- based research into humor. At the end he stuffs all the various approaches to verbal humor into linguistic theory as a whole. Nobody gets it, see, so he tells them to buy the book.
