CALQUES ,RUSSIAN language ,LINGUISTICS ,EUROPE-Russia relations - Abstract
An important source for the investigation of the Russian language during the reign of Peter the Great is the first printed paper Vědomosti (1703-1727) initiated by the Tsar himself. Here many compilations from Western European papers are found, that transported words of Latin provenance into Vědomosti, including later latinized spellings and Latin quotations. This shows the strong position of latinitas in the Western European language area at the time, in particular Dutch, the language favoured by the Tzar, but also German and French. Therefore we are dealing here with «Eurolatinisms» which form a connection between Russia and the European area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

SPANISH language ,INTERROGATIVE (Grammar) ,ADVERBS (Grammar) ,DISCOURSE analysis ,LINGUISTICS ,LANGUAGE & languages - Abstract
This paper develops a corpus-driven analysis of wh-interrogatives in Castilian Spanish. Combining methods from variationist and interactional linguistics, it is demonstrated that both the distribution of the variants and their discourse functions can be described in terms of the degree of mental accessibility of the interrogative proposition (P) and the referent of the interrogative pronoun/ adverb (X). In contexts in which both P and X have a low degree of accessibility, wh-interrogatives establish a new Question under Discussion; in contexts in which P has a high and X a low degree of accessibility, wh-interrogatives are used to elaborate a current Question under Discussion; in contexts in which both P and X have a high degree of accessibility, wh-interrogatives are used to repeat, clarify or challenge a previous utterance. Given that the wh-interrogative variants differ in their restrictions regarding the accessibility of P and X, they typically also fulfil different discourse functions. The analysis moreover demonstrates that due to these functional differences, the type of response to the interrogatives produced by the listeners differs systematically depending on the wh-interrogative type.

AMBIGUITY in literature ,HUMOR in literature ,TRANSLATIONS ,LINGUISTICS ,POLYSEMY - Abstract
This paper is dedicated to the concept of ambiguity and humor as an intercultural phenomenon. In the first section, we introduce different concepts of the term humor in literature from the perspective of literary and cultural studies, psychology and cognitive linguistics. We attempt to show that the concept of humor and ambiguity of an intercultural and interlingual perspective may belong to the most difficult areas of translation theory. At the same time, humor and polysemy are the key concepts of a semantically and pragmatically based theory of translation. In the second section, we will briefly deal with the phenomena of humor and ambiguity from the psycholinguistic and cognitive point of view and thereby we try to analyze the difference between visuality and textuality of Shakespeare's tragedy 'Romeo and Juliet' in film and on stage. The third section of this paper is devoted to the phenomenon of interculturality and the interlingual translation of pragmatic and cognitive-semantic categories on the example of polysemy, vagueness, irony, pun, word play and joke (and its various strategies and conversational implicatures in the literary text). It is assumed that initially the validity of the Relevance criterion (Sperber & Wilson 2005) and the validity of the principle of cooperation are in play, even in a text that is commonly considered as 'meaningless'. We want to prove the example of James Joyce's 'Finnegans Wake', demonstrating that even such a seemingly illegible or difficult text that has often been considered non transferable, in a certain pattern and its narrative potential of the storyline, in the dynamics and in the progression descends from and is determined by the VALIDITY of the criterion of relevance. In another part of this third section, we turn to the Elizabethan drama of Shakespeare and the novel Gargantua and Pantagruel by François Rabelais, Ulysses by James Joyce as well as the unforgettable Novel by Jaroslav Hašek Brave Soldier Švejk, showing how wit and irony work and can be translated.

This paper presents an overview of the present-day system of varieties of German with a focus on linguistic usage in the Federal Republic of Germany. The interaction of social and regional factors underlying these varieties is discussed with special reference to the sociosituational conditions determining their existence and use. On the basis of this analysis, the second part of the paper examines three developmental tendencies and the effect they have on a restructuring of the system of varieties: dialect decay, dialect revival, and regionalization of the standard language.

The subject of this paper is the presentation of the analysis of details of various German phraseologisms containing the constituent Hand [ hand]. It will be shown that a considerable improvement in clarity can be achieved by analyzing these phraseolgisms as belonging to a specific construction family. The analysis follows in its classification previous studies from the project 'Linguistik des Körpers' [ Linguistics of the Human Body]. The essential objectives of this project are: As considered from a methodological point of view (II) would be the conditio sine qua non with regard to (I). The thesis is the following: Although phraseologisms - following Goldberg - are not absolutely predictable, the body part terms still allow the identification of a specific contribution to the phraseological meaning. To a certain extent the phraseological meaning turns out to be compositional as if moved along a metonymic guide. Analysis of the meaning will be the main focus of this investigation. Meanings occur in daily use. The only way to get further knowledge about the meaning(s) of linguistic entities is by analyzing their (actual) use. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Based on the critical analysis of a specific dictionary, the present paper argues that the comment on semantics in contemporary dictionaries of language contact has to be set up in a completely different manner than that which has been used to date. Dictionaries of this type, which omit the evaluation of corpora as primary sources in favor of secondary sources, reveal systematic shortcomings in the semantic description of contact phenomena. The article focuses specifically on the temporal dimension of marking and the contemporary relevance of the semantic items. The discussed methodological issues are for the most part independent from the respective contact languages, in this case German and Italian, so that the results might be generalized.

The paper deals with the iconic and indexical relations of lexical signs in German Sign Language (DGS). It is argued that the theory of signs as established by Charles S. Peirce is particular fruitful with respect to the description and classification of signs in the visual-gestural modality, but also needs some additional discussion on the nature of the relation between sign and reference object. As will be demonstrated, motivated signs in German Sign Language are more complex with respect to indexicality and iconicity as is recognized in contemporary research. Accordingly, the paper discusses the necessity to modify the typology of linguistic signs with respect to sign languages. It will be demonstrated that there has to be established a class of schematic signs within the group of hypoicons. Secondly, it is argued that DGS has a class of motivated but non-iconic signs, which show a designative-indexical relation which relates to the spoken or written form of a word of the oral contact language German. In sum, a modified typology of lexical signs is established which not only includes the sign types symbol, index and (image)icon but also the new types schematic icon and indicator (‘Hinweis’).

This paper is concerned with the concession-relation on epistemic-level, herein after referred to as ‘concession’. It is shown that there is a spectrum of means to encode concessions in German: the forms vary from rather “idiomatic” constructions to less specified constructions, from lexico-grammatical constructions up to hardly encoded forms, which have to be inferred from discourse context. Furthermore, a method is demonstrated to reconstruct hardly encoded forms of concessions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Theories of grammar typically have some way of accommodating fixed or semi-fixed idiomatic expressions in addition to expressions derived compositionally by general abstract rules. Construction Grammar differs from most other theories in that it takes such idiomatic expressions as a model for the grammar of natural languages as a whole. Linguistic structures at all levels of complexity and schematicity are uniformly modeled as “constructions”, i.e. form-meaning pairs with unpredictable formal or semantic properties. This view of grammar is plausible only to the extent that abstract and complex linguistic structures can be shown to constitute such form-meaning pairs. In this paper, I present an analysis of the so-called “modal infinitives” in German (structures consisting of haben ‘have’ or sein ‘be’ and an infinitive with zu ‘to’). I argue that German modal infinitives can be described adequatlyadequately only if we assume that they are constructions in the sense of Construction Grammar. While their general function of encoding possibility and obligation can be predicted from the meaning of haben/ sein and the infinitival verb phrase, at least one of their more specific conventionalized meanings, “obligation without alternatives”, is more specific than anything that could be derived compositionally from these component parts. Since modal infinitives are part of the “core grammar” of German, this analysis strengthens the case for an analysis of natural language grammars in terms of constructions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Shifts in a word's valency (such as increases or reductions, e.g. of a verb) are alterations to a core valency. One precondition of valency shift is that the verb provides semantic and conceptual opportunities for this shift. Another precondition is that, in a given language, constructions have already evolved in which these shifts can be actualized. Valency shift is construction inheritance: a given verb inherits a construction for which it had not previously been licensed from another verb that is licensed for this construction. Valency inheritance is the inheritance of a verb's valency by a noun construction. Valency theory and construction grammar are therefore complementary. Our concept of shift and inheritance of valencies and constructions is prototypical and analogical. In this context, the paper discusses identity, polysemy and homonymy of constructions, using the nominative-accusative construction as an example. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the second half of the eighteenth century, a far-reaching change took place in the language of Southern Germany and Austria. This change from the traditional baroque Upper German written language [oberdeutsche Schreibsprache] to modern High German occurred not only in the language of printing, but also in private letters. One result of this transition is a broad variety of linguistic forms. The extensive correspondence between members of the Mozart family (father, mother, daughter, son) is an extremely useful subject for the investigation of this language variation. After a series of introductory sections, the usage of written language by the different members of the family will be analyzed in part one of this paper. The range of variety reaches from Leopold Mozart's modern, educated German to the traditional, partly colloquial language of Mozart's mother. A separate chapter deals with W. A. Mozart's creative use of language (and varieties), his fancy for artificial jokes and word play [Sprachspiele]. Part two deals with the question of what we can learn from the written language of the letters about how the Mozarts spoke with each other and with other members of their society.

This paper contributes to the typology of “active-stative” split intransitivity and middle voice with a detailed case study: it proceeds from a typological comparison of the two phenomena, which are usually treated apart, to an analysis of the Enets data and a discussion of its place in the typology of possible intransitive splits. Enets (Uralic, Samoyedic) has two classes of intransitive verbs, and each class uses its own cross-reference paradigm in all finite forms. The paper provides an account of the morphology of this intransitive split and its connection to the lexical aspect, followed by an overview of semantic composition of the two lexical classes; special attention is given to cases of class variation available for a dozen verbs. The research is based on the data of a fieldworkers’ corpus and thus also shows the advantages of a corpus-based approach to this phenomenon.

The paper investigates two related questions that concern the realization of plural morphology on nouns across languages. The first question is whether markedness in the sense of complexity in form goes hand in hand with complexity in meaning. In other words, since plural nouns are formally more complex than singular nouns, does that mean that they differ in interpretation? On the basis of experimental and theoretical investigations the claim is supported that plurals, although morphologically more complex than singulars, are semantically unmarked across languages. The second question is what regulates the presence of plural morphology in numeral-noun constructions across languages, in light of the proposal that plural appears on nouns in such constructions only if it is semantically unmarked. The paper offers an explanation of this distribution by adopting a dual system of agreement, which distinguishes between CONCORD and INDEX features. By looking at these two questions, the paper makes a contribution to the discussion of the relationship between semantic and morphological markedness.

The article focuses on the importance of linguistic nuances in (Post-)Yugoslav Studies, emphasizing how a minor mistranslation of 'galeb' from 'seagull' to 'dove' alters the interpretation significantly. It delves into power structures in academia, advocating for more substantial involvement of native speakers to enhance knowledge production, drawing parallels with the struggles of other marginalized groups in academia. Topics covered include the significance of language nuances, power imbalances in academic research, and the need for inclusion and engagement of heritage scholars in Post-Yugoslav Studies for more equitable knowledge production.

The semiotic process of sign-formation is intensified in peripheral, small, and perhaps mixed spaces, and according to linguistics have functional limits. The paper compares figurative and metaphorical concepts in metalinguistic discourse culled from contemporary Belorussian texts.

After a brief survey of the establishment of German Studies as an academic discipline, the article will deal with the process by which the two ›sides‹ of the subject, literature and linguistics, grew apart, and the 1960s and 1970s attempts to bring them closer together; finally, the current situation will be briefly reviewed. How will the relationship between the two ›sub-departments‹ take shape in the radically different academic world of the 21st century, against a background of different paradigms, concepts, and methods? Is there any real and objective substance to the appeals for a return to -- purported -- similarities, which, while hardly dominating the self-perception of literary or linguistic studies, are perceptibly coming from both camps? This study orients itself chiefly on the relevant discussion in the journal Literaturwissenschaft und Linguistik (LiLi), which has concerned itself with interdisciplinarity since its foundation, with particular reference to the relationship between the two ›sides‹ of German Studies. Building on the case of LiLi, and going beyond this, this article shows, via current conceptions of text, style and genre, as well as the methodological possibilities of corpus linguistics, that there are areas of common ground, and what methods will prove useful in collaborative work. It is concluded that, whether one approaches one's object of study from a literary or linguistic perspective, that object is both a linguistic and textual phenomenon. Today, both sub-disciplines can agree on a broad understanding of ›text‹ and ›style‹. The contemporary understanding of style has turned away from traditional rhetorical -- or purely linguistic -- categories, towards text- and function-related understandings, or to discourse linguistics and semiotics. Equally, the former understanding of texts as a unit, complete in structure and content, unified in theme, and unambiguous in its intentions has vanished. Instead, when approaching texts in general and literary texts in particular, scholars proceed from an assumption of a semantically open, processual, functional text, which is different for each recipient. As this can only be constituted through language, considerations of style are always implicitly present in the superficial textual features. Language and literary studies could also co-operate in the field of text-type/genre. Both the current linguistic understanding of ›text‹, much broader in comparison to older ones, and the cultural studies approach to the phenomena of text-type, imply that text-type can be understood not only from a language-internal perspective, but also as communicative patterns and cultural artefacts. They can be understood as instruments of collective action, which the members of a cultural community produce together, so as to live and act together in their lived reality and to engage with this reflectively and in practice. Text-types are as much involved in the form/constitution of cultures as they are formed by them. Their cultural conditioning is closely related to their characteristic of acting as crystallised ›bundles‹ of knowledge. The patterns (understood in the cognitive sense), which underlie the linguistic-communicative uses of texts of particular text-types, are the intersections between relevant areas of situated knowledge, to which, along with encyclopaedic knowledge of the world, knowledge of behavioural norms, and linguistic knowledge, cultural knowledge also belongs. This also includes the social function of a text-type, the ›Sitz im Leben‹ (Gunkel, Einleitung in die Psalmen: Die Gattungen der religiöösen Lyrik Israels [[1933]], 1986, Jaußß, Theorie der Gattungen und Literatur des Mittelalters, 1972) unique to the pattern of each text-type. This refers to the fact that each text-type makes possible a specific situation for problems of its lived reality. It is easy to imagine a collaboration between linguistics and literary studies here. In both linguistics and in literary studies, a new interest in questions of hermeneutics, of understanding and interpretation can currently be noted. In linguistics, there is a determined effort to make the study of the understanding and interpretation of texts, on the basis of new knowledge about cognition and processes of understanding, the centre of attention. In a cognitive-linguistic act, the complex sign constituted by a text is given meaning, which always entails an interpretation of that which is understood, which moves between closed and open meanings (Gardt, Linguistisches Interpretieren. Konstruktivistische Theorie und realistische Praxis, 2007). With this new turn towards hermeneutics, the single, individual text as creative achievement returns to the centre of attention. Via micro- and macro-analyses, all levels of the text and their functionalities are considered. Similar approaches may be met in literary studies, for instance when Weimar (Mitteilungen des deutschen Germanistenverbandes 49: 104--115, 2002) demands that texts should be given all the efforts at understanding which are necessary to the text and which the text offers, and when he develops the idea of Interpretation as an understanding of that which has been understood. Electronic data-storage and electronic access (e. g. search engines) make possible the exact and complete analysis of what would have been an impossible mass of text in a paper corpus, and enable the discovery of systematic connections where once only chance results might have been found. It is now possible and easy to compare large text corpora in search of inter-textual connections, or large or small similarities in theme. This promises to be an aid to the production of scholarly editions, as well as in the study of the literary, artistic, and theoretical discourses of a given era. As well as a historical overview, the article shows that German Studies raises questions which it appears may be profitably investigated by linguists and literary scholars in collaboration. It will also introduce, via representative examples, the insights and methods which literary studies lack, and linguistics can offer in this shared undertaking. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The rise of the periphrastic perfect tenses – past participle + have or be – is a phenomenon for which the analysis is especially promising with regards to the research on grammaticalisation. Firstly, it involved several steps of syntactic reanalysis and lexical recategorisation leading to a construction-specific auxiliary verb form. This allows for conclusions to be drawn about processes involved in grammaticalisation in general. Secondly, it is a grammatical change in which both Germanic and Romance languages converged. This allows for conclusions about universal conditions underlying such kinds of change. Thirdly, in German, the rise occurred rather late and within a relatively short period of time. This allows for the observation of the periphrasis in statu nascendi. In this paper, the grammaticalisation process is modeled and explained in a formal framework of generative syntax, also taking into account performance-based changes and contextual aspects providing the conditions for the relevant changes in the grammar. The main claim is that this process of grammaticalisation was terminated by an abrupt parametric change, leading to a syntactically reanalysed form of analytic inflection and the recategorisation of have as an auxiliary. The result was a full paradigm of periphrastic perfect tense. The preconditions for this grammatical change were provided by a sequence of performance-based changes and minor formal reanalyses, giving the process its gradual nature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article cites the regionalist perspective chosen by the Silesian author Jerzy Pilch on the dichotomy between "us" and "them." The said perspective by Pilch was being considered to be one of the most interesting aesthetic solutions offered by Polish prose writers within the last fifteen years. From the peripheral Protestant point of view, Pilch undermines the traditional equivalent Pole = Catholic. His prose stresses a seemingly non-Polish denomination. Such strategy as also shown in his novels are being discussed in the paper.

- Abstract
Im Jahr 2014 feierte das Institut für Deutsche Sprache (IDS) sein 50-jähriges Bestehen. Dieses Jubiläum nahm das IDS zum Anlass, seine Jahrestagung thematisch etwas breiter anzulegen und diejenigen Themenfelder, die in der sprachwissenschaftlichen Diskussion der letzten fünf Jahrzehnte eine besondere Rolle gespielt haben und zu denen das IDS in besonderer Weise hat beitragen können, einer Revision zu unterziehen. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes bieten daher einerseits eine Zusammenschau der aktuellen Fragen der Grammatikforschung und Grammatikografie, der Lexikologie und Lexikografie, des gesprochenen Sprachgebrauchs sowie der Korpustechnologie und der Computerlinguistik. Andererseits geben sie auch Auskunft darüber, wo die Sprachwissenschaft im Moment steht und wo sich zukünftig vielleicht neue Forschungsräume öffnen.

The use of punctuation in German incunabula is often described as arbitrary, irregular, and unsystematic (cf. Masalon 2014: 54–56). This concerns the inventory, frequency, and function of punctuation marks as well as pragmatic aspects such as how typesetters treated punctuation in their respective target texts. In this paper, punctuation is not seen as an independent linguistic subsystem, but as a means of text segmentation that – along with other measures (e. g. capital letters, pilcrows, and white space) – was used to structure a text with respect to its formal appearance, helping the reader to decode information. This case study is based on a corpus of German pamphlets written by the Bohemian astrologer Wenzel Faber and printed annually beginning in 1481 at various print shops, principally in Leipzig and Nuremberg. The analysis finds significant changes in the editions before and after 1490. These changes include an increasing consistency in the intensity of text segmentation, and a use of capital letters and punctuation marks developed from a polyfunctional to a monofunctional approach. Finally, different types of text segmentation are proposed, each characterized by a specific relationship between its frequency and its function. Despite this overall tendency, one must still take into account that typesetters followed individual punctuation practices in their search for suitable forms of text segmentation.

In modern French, as in all Romance languages, the combination of two object clitics is subject to rigid ordering and co-occurrence constraints. The present paper shows that constraints of both kinds can be ascribed to systematically operating impoverishment processes in the sense of Distributed Morphology (Bonet 1995; Halle & Marantz 1993) without recourse to templates (cf. Miller & Sag 1997; Perlmutter 1971, etc.). The system that will be presented below is consistent, complete and non-redundant. Thus, it fulfils the essential metatheoretical qualifications of a formal system. The assumption of this paper is that the object clitics are postsyntactically inserted dissociated morphemes that are, prior to further operations kicking in, preverbally linearized. The postposition present in the positive imperative is brought about by another, subsequent, postsyntactic operation, i. e. by local dislocation. Or, put another way, there is an operational level in which the object clitics are arranged before the verb. Only on a downstream operational level do the object clitics move behind the verb. In this article I do not submit any new empirical findings on the modern French clitic system. My aim is to harness the well-known phenomena for modelling them in Distributed Morphology.

This paper is concerned with meaning variations taking place in the interpretation of utterances. In particular, it examines the phenomena of conceptual differentiation and conceptual shifting performed on expressions of situations. My point of departure is that the linguistic form drastically underdetermines the propositional content which is explicitly expressed by an utterance. Consequently, I suppose a general framework which makes a distinction between two basic phases within the process of understanding. In the first phase of interpretation, which is part of the autonomous grammatical system, the context-independent and, hence, merely formal meaning of the utterance is calculated by means of semantic composition. In the second phase its contextually specified meaning is derived by pragmatic inferences integrating the abstract meaning base with accessible elements of conceptual knowledge. In concretizing this picture, I offer a multi-level model in which the propositional content, starting from the level of semantic form, has to be elaborated step by step in a sequence of conceptual structures. In view of the fact that most verbs are open to a multitude of primary meaning variants, the paper argues for a minimalistic approach to their lexical-semantic form which allows for conceptual differentiation by fixing the parameters involved. Essentially, the strategy of radical underspecification is also applied to the problem of deviating interpretations which can be observed, for instance, in adverbial modification. My basic assumption is that in the course of compositional derivation further parameters are introduced by obligatory insertion of certain general schemata. If required, these parameters are available to a fixation by means of which a suitable conceptual shifting of the respective expression is realized.

- Abstract
Der öffentlichen Diskussion um den Islam liegt ein Konzept'Islam'zugrunde, das im Diskurs gespiegelt wird und zugleich dort auch entsteht. Die vorliegende Studie untersucht diesen Entstehungsprozess und zeigt, dass Bedeutung nicht nur an einzelne Ausdrücke geknüpft, sondern auch ein flächiges Phänomen ist. Dabei bewegt sich der analysierende Blick graduell gestuft auf die Texte (Zeitungen, Stellungnahmen, Abhandlungen usw.) zu: Der zu untersuchende Textausschnitt wird immer kleiner gewählt, um ihn bei jedem Schritt genauer betrachten zu können. Jede der in der Studie angewandten Methoden besitzt diskursanalytische Vorzüge, ist aber als einzelne in ihren Möglichkeiten eingeschränkt. Mittels Kombination der – qualitativen und quantitativen – Methoden aus lexikalischer Semantik, Text- und Diskurslinguistik ist es schließlich möglich, das Konzept umfassend zu beschreiben. Neben diesen linguistisch-methodischen Erkenntnissen liefert das Buch auch bezogen auf den Gegenstand Islam interessante Ergebnisse: Es wird gezeigt, wie Diskursteilnehmer z.B. mittels Kollokationen wie radikaler, politischer Islam bzw. moderater, dialogoffener Islam den Islam nicht nur beschreiben, sondern ihm durch die sprachliche Darstellung inhaltliche Konturen verleihen und ihn als so konturierte Größe zum Objekt der öffentlichen Auseinandersetzung machen – der Islam ist das, als was er im Diskurs erscheint.

The aim of this contribution is to reposition a key notion to the centre of Wulf Oesterreicher's theoretical disciplinary reasoning: grammar, or more generally, 'rules and norms' specific to single languages and varieties the linguist deals with. This includes contingent, non-motivated structures, and claiming the necessity to analyse their existence 'as such' (i.e., also independently of communicative, social etc. factors) as the core task of linguistics. This point is illustrated with a much debated variable in French descriptive linguistics: past participle agreement. Combining theoretical and corpus linguistic observations, the distribution of the two variants (absence vs. realization of agreement) in constructions with the auxiliary avoir shows that a grammatical analysis interested in the derivation of certain rules and their application in actual language usage permits to understand the logic of linguistic variation - at least the one observable alongside the standard - non-standard opposition in French.

This paper discusses surface optionality in focus fronting in the Benue-Congo language Igbo. A focused XP can occur in-situ or ex-situ. We argue that the optionality does not have its origins in the syntax: in fact, exactly one focused XP has to move to the designated focus position in the left periphery in the syntax. The alternation between in-situ and ex-situ rather arises at PF: either the lowest or the topmost copy of the focus chain is pronounced. The choice is determined by semantic-pragmatic factors, i. e., we see an interaction between PF and LF. This constitutes a challenge for a strict version of the Y-model of grammar.

- Abstract
Der Essay zur Natur der Sprache entwickelt eine neue und unvoreingenommene Sicht auf Sprache, die die wichtigsten Sprachbegriffe zunächst dekonstruiert, um daraufhin nach möglichen Rekonstruktionen zu suchen. Dabei werden nicht nur die aktuellen Diskurse der Bewusstseinsphilosophie, Sprachphilosophie und Allgemeinen Sprachwissenschaft, sondern auch der evolutionären Anthropologie und Kognitionspsychologie neu bewertet und zusammengeführt. Denn den einen Sprachbegriff gibt es nicht und ihn stets schon vorauszusetzen, wenn wir über Sprache diskutieren, bedeutet, bei der Suche nach der Sprache und den Antworten auf die Fragen, die von ihr abhängen, im Kreis zu gehen.

- Linguistics, Language and languages
- Abstract
Unser Wissen von Sprache können wir in Form von Begriffen, Erzählungen oder Bildern objektivieren, wobei die begriffliche Repräsentation üblicherweise als höchste Stufe der Wissensbildung gilt. Gleichwohl sollten wir die narrativen und sinnbildlichen Objektivierungen von Sprache keineswegs nur als defizitäre Vorstufen der begrifflichen ansehen, sondern eher als ergänzende Formen. Die begriffliche Erschließung von Sprache hilft uns, Sprache als Erfahrungsgegenstand kategorial einzuordnen und uns argumentativ über sie zu verständigen. Die narrative hilft uns, das pragmatische Funktionspotenzial der Sprache in konkreten Lebenszusammenhängen kennenzulernen. Die sinnbildliche hilft uns, die komplexen Strukturen und Funktionen von Sprache über Analogien zu empirisch fassbaren Erfahrungsgegenständen in den Blick zu bekommen. Deshalb lassen sich Sinnbilder über Sprache als hermeutisch-heuristische Hypothesen verstehen, die mehr als ornamentale Funktionen haben. Sie gehen aus einem experimentellen Denken hervor und wollen unserer Nachdenken über Sprache dialektisch in Fluss halten. Sie veranschaulichen uns die Genese und die Substrukturen unseres Wissens von Sprache und wollen dieses nicht abschließend auf statische Begriffe bringen.

- Abstract
Der vorliegende Band präsentiert die theoretischen und methodischen Grundlagen der Forschung zur Konstituierung von Wissen in sprachlichen Formationen. Nach einem theoretischen Teil, der die begrifflichen und sprachtheoretischen Grundlagen der linguistischen Wissensanalyse modelliert, wird darauf aufbauend ein Beschreibungsinstrumentarium vorgestellt, an empirischen Einzelanalysen exemplifiziert und zur Diskussion gestellt. Danach werden in Überblicksaufsätzen neue Forschungsbereiche aufgezeigt und in einem letzten Teil das praktische Gestaltungspotenzial linguistischer Forschung dokumentiert. Neben methodischen Fragen der Gesprächsanalyse, der Kognitiven Grammatik und der Konstruktionsgrammatik stehen besonders der Wissens- und der Diskursbegriff im Zentrum. In zahlreichen Einzelanalysen wird das vorgestellte Beschreibungsinstrumentarium an den Themen Nanotechnologie, Biomedizin, Politik, Bildung, Kunst, Religion, Mathematik, Recht und Wirtschaft exemplifiziert. Der vorliegende Sammelband ist die zweite Publikation des Forschungsnetzwerks Sprache und Wissen (www.suw.uni-hd.de).

- Abstract
Die Diskurslinguistik hat sich mittlerweile als Teildisziplin der Sprachwissenschaft, die sich mit textübergreifenden Bedeutungsbezügen und historisch-kulturell verankertem Wissen befasst, und als auf Sprache spezialisierte Subdisziplin im multidisziplinären Projekt „Diskursanalyse“ etabliert. Während die theoretische Reflexion des Diskursbegriffes weit vorangeschritten ist und zahlreiche Einzeluntersuchungen vorliegen, fehlt es noch immer an einer fundierten Methodik und Methodologie, an Verfahren, die wissenschaftlichen Kriterien wie Validität und Reliabilität standhalten und gleichzeitig der komplexen Diskursmorphologie gerecht werden. Diesem Desiderat tritt der Band entgegen. Die Beiträge stellen verschiedene Methoden vor, exemplifizieren sie und diskutieren ihre Applizierbarkeit auf so unterschiedliche diskurslinguistische Gegenstandsbereiche wie Episteme und Schemata, Aussagen und Argumentationen, Subjekt und Kollektiv, Multimodalität und Interaktivität, Ideologie und Macht sowie Korpus und Muster. Damit ist der Band gleichermaßen eine Darstellung der wichtigsten Methoden der Diskurslinguistik wie ein Kompendium der aktuellen methodologischen Diskussion.

Das 20. Jahrhundert ist das Jahrhundert der Sprachthematisierung: In Philosophie und Linguistik ist es zu einer Beschäftigung mit dem Phänomen „Sprache“ in einem bis dahin nicht bekannten Umfang und Aspektreichtum gekommen. Sprache ist nicht nur als Zeichensystem (Saussure) betrachtet worden, sondern z. B. auch als Organon (Bühler), Organ (Chomsky), Spiel (Wittgenstein), Buchstabe (Lacan), Schrift (Derrida), Gespräch (Gadamer), Idiolekt (Davidson), Vokabular (Rorty), Lautgestalt (Jakobson), Referenz (Quine), Symbolisierung (Waldron), Bedeutung (Taylor), Konvention (Lewis) oder paradoxe Form (Luhmann). Dreißig Sprachauffassungen werden vorgestellt und unter den Gesichtspunkten des Zeichens, der Struktur, der Darstellung, des Verhaltens und des Mediums klassifiziert.

- Abstract
Das Sammelwerk Sprache und sprachliches Handeln bietet in drei Bänden erstmals zusammenfassend Grundlagen einer funktional-pragmatischen Sprachtheorie und vermittelt in exemplarischen linguistischen Analysen Einsichten in die Arbeitsweisen, die auf dieser Basis möglich werden. In kritischer Auseinandersetzung mit Hauptlinien der sprachwissenschaftlichen Theoriebildung wird das Profil funktional-pragmatischer Herangehensweise entwickelt (Band 1 zur Pragmatik und Sprachtheorie). Sprachliche Prozeduren (Handlungseinheiten, die „unterhalb“ der Stufe der Sprechhandlungen und ihrer einzelnen Akte liegen) werden in ihrer Verwendung beim sprachlichen Handeln untersucht (Band 2). Dabei liegt ein besonderes Gewicht bei ihrer Nutzung in literarischen Texten. Diskurse in unterschiedlichen Handlungsfeldern wie Schule, Wirtschaft oder Religion bilden einen Schwerpunkt der in Band 3 enthaltenen Analysen. Weitere Schwerpunkte sind das Erzählen als alltagssprachliches Handeln und die systematische Entwicklung eines Textbegriffs aus den Bedürfnissen des sprachlichen Handelns. Entwicklung und Struktur von Schrift werden (gegenüber einfachen Gleichsetzungen von Text und Schriftlichkeit) auf die spezifischen sprachsystematischen Konsequenzen schriftlicher Kommunikation hin befragt.
