SeriesCurrent research in the semantics/pragmatics interface, 1472-7870 ; volume 40
Abstract "Two questions lie at the core of current research into discourse structuring: what is the appropriate level of analysis for discourse segmentation and what are the criteria for the identification of basic units in discourse. Linguistic structure - and more precisely, the extraction and integration of syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic information - has shown to be at the center of discourse comprehension. However, its role in the establishment of basic building blocks for a coherent discourse is still a subject to debate. This collection presents current work on theoretical, diachronic, cross-linguistic, as well as experimental research into the identification and marking of discourse units, and into how discourse coherence can be brought about by the basic building blocks of discourse. Contributors are Markus Bader, Peter Bourgonje, Marco Coniglio, Claudia Felser, Cassandra Freiberg, Liliane Haegeman, Roland Hinterhölzl, Katja Jasinskaja, Umut Özge, Clare Patterson, Yvonne Portele, Claudia Poschmann, Manfred Stede and Klaus von Heusinger"-- Provided by publisher.
