Quotatives considers the phenomenon "quotation" from a wealth of perspectives. It consolidates findings from different strands of research, combining formal and functional approaches for the ...definition of reported discourse and situating the phenomenon in a broader typological and sociolinguistic perspective. * Provides an interface between sociolinguistic research and other linguistic disciplines, in particular discourse analysis, typology, construction grammar but also more formal approaches * Incorporates innovative methodology that draws on discourse analytic, typological and sociolinguistic approaches * Investigates the system both in its diachronic development as well as via cross-variety comparisons * Presents careful definition of the envelope of variation and considers alternative definitions of the phenomenon "quotation" * Empirical findings are reported from distribution and perception data, which allows comparing and contrasting perception and reality
In der seit Mitte der 1970er Jahre bestehenden Reihe Germanistische Linguistik (RGL) haben Veröffentlichungen zu allen Aspekten von Sprache und Kommunikation ihren Platz. Wesentliche ...Publikationsformen sind die Monografie und thematisch kohärente Sammelbände. Der Erfolg der Reihe besteht darin, die große Bandbreite an Themen, Theorien und an methodologischen Zugängen in der germanistischen Linguistik zu berücksichtigen und zu deren Sichtbarkeit im Fach beizutragen. Gleichzeitig war und ist die Reihe ein Ort, an dem innovative Impulse aufgegriffen und neue Trends geprägt werden.

The different traditions that have inspired the contributors to this volume can be divided along three different orientations, one that is rooted predominantly in sociolinguistics, a second that is ...ethnomethodologically informed, and a third that came in the wake of narrative interview research. All three share a commitment to view self and identity not as essential properties of the person but as constituted in discursive practices and particularly in narrative. Moreover, since self and identity are held to be phenomena that are contextually and continually generated, they are defined and viewed in the plural, as selves and identities. In the attempt of moving closer toward a process-oriented approach to the formation of selves and identities, this volume sets the stage for future discussions of the role of narrative and discourse in this generation process and for how a close analysis of these processes can advance an understanding of the world around us and within this world, of identities and selves.
