The notion of subjectivity explored here concerns expression of
self and the representation of a speaker's perspective or point of
view in discourse. Subjectivization involves the structures and
strategies that languages evolve in the linguistic realization of
subjectivity and the relevant processes of linguistic evolution
themselves. This volume reflects the growing attention in
linguistics and related disciplines commanded by the centrality of
the speaker in language. An international team of contributors
offers a series of studies on grammatical, diachronic, and literary
aspects of subjectivity and subjectivization, from a variety of
perspectives including literary stylistics, historical linguistics,
formal semantics, and discourse analysis. The essays look at the
role of the perspective of locutionary agents, their expression of
affect and modality in linguistic expressions and discourse, and
the effects of these phenomena on the formal shape of discourse.
This volume demonstrates how deeply embedded in linguistic
expression subjectivity is, and how central to human discourse.
