Information structure and the organization of oral texts have been
rarely studied crosslinguistically. This book contains studies of
the grammatical organization of information in languages from
different areas (e.g. Amazonian, Finno-Ugric, South-Asian) from a
variety of theoretical angles. It will be a valuable resource for
researchers investigating the interaction of morphosyntax and
discourse in familiar and less familiar languages.
This monograph is intended as a reference book on Detachment
Constructions (DECs) in the Information Structuring of oral and
spoken languages. Focusing on DECs in a textual perspective, the
book is an innovative contribution to the knowledge of oral and
spoken languages, some of them widespread (Indo-European), others
less taught (Finno-Ugric).
TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS is a series of books that open new
perspectives in our understanding of language. The series publishes
state-of-the-art work on core areas of linguistics across
theoretical frameworks, as well as studies that provide new
insights by approaching language from an interdisciplinary
perspective. TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS considers itself a forum for
cutting-edge research based on solid empirical data on language in
its various manifestations, including sign languages. It regards
linguistic variation in its synchronic and diachronic dimensions as
well as in its social contexts as important sources of insight for
a better understanding of the design of linguistic systems and the
ecology and evolution of language. TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS publishes
monographs and outstanding dissertations as well as edited volumes,
which provide the opportunity to address controversial topics from
different empirical and theoretical viewpoints. High quality
standards are ensured through anonymous reviewing. To discuss your
