Description: |
Part of the series "Pragmatics and Beyond", this text discusses such issues as: referring expressions; inferring identifiability and accessibility; word order and cognitive status in Mandarin; prosodic cues to accessibility; and the game of the name. |
Synopsis: |
The papers in this volume are concerned with the question of how a speaker's intended referent is interpreted by the addressee. Topics include the interpretation of coreferential vs. disjoint reference, the role of intonation, syntactic form and animacy in reference understanding, and the way in which general principles of utterance interpretation constrain possible interpretations of referring expressions. The collection arises from a workshop on reference and referent accessibility which was held at the 4th International Pragmatics Conference in Kobe, Japan, July 25-30, 1993. |
