The Discourse Potential of Underspecified Structures (Language, Context and Cognition, 8) - Hardcover
Synopsis
The volume demonstrates the interdependence of mans language capacity and his other conceptual capacities. This enables linguistic structures to be minimalised, and for extra-linguistic domains to provide much of the interpretations of sound and meaning. Underspecification is demonstrated in the word formation of Indo-European, Late Archaic Chinese and modern Khmer; on the word- and sentence levels by the event structures of German; and in the information structure predominantly of languages with the so-called free word order: German, Slavic languages, Arabic compared with English and the tone language Hausa. The volume is noteworthy due to the close cooperation between theoretical and experimental research. Within grammar, it has especially strengthened prosodic research and the syntax-phonology interrelations and their interpretations, and it has helped to create data bases for the relations within texts and to evaluate the findings.

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Human languages are very economical systems of knowledge, which usually contribute to the formation and interpretation of an utterance only what cannot be supplied by other conceptual systems. Thus, conceptual underspecification and context-dependence are essential properties, which vary from one particular language to the next in dependence on the structural make-up a given language belongs to.The book series Language, Context and Cognition explores the essential properties of natural languages in focusing on their lexical entries, on the interaction of their grammatical subsystems as well as on the text production methods, from both synchronic and diachronic viewpoints.Research on the conceptual underspecification of language requires close cooperation of linguists with researchers in cognitive and neuroscience, with phoneticians, logicians and with the experts of pragmatic and experimental disciplines, but it also needs interdisciplinary cooperation with experts of non-linguistic conceptual systems.Editorial board:Dr. habil. Kai Alter (Newcastle University und Oxford University)Prof. Dr. Ulrike Demske (Universität Potsdam)Prof. Dr. Ljudmila Geist (Universität Stuttgart)Prof. Dr. Rosemarie Lühr (Humboldt Universität Berlin)Prof. Dr. Thomas Pechmann (Universität Leipzig)Prof. Dr. Richard Wiese (Universität Marburg)Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Genthiner Strasse 13, 10785 Berlin 640 pp. Englisch.
