Abstract:

In this volume leading academics in Interactional Linguistics and Conversation
Analysis consider the notion of units for the study of language and
interaction. Amongst the issues being explored are the role and relevance of
traditionally accepted linguistic units for the analysis of naturally
occurring talk, and the identification of new units of conduct in interaction.
While some chapters make suggestions on how existing linguistic units can be
adapted to suit the study of conversation, others present radically new
perspectives on how language in interaction should be described,
conceptualised and researched. The chapters present empirical investigations
into different languages (Danish, English, Japanese, Mandarin, Swedish) in a
variety of settings (private and institutional), considering both linguistic
and embodied resources for talk. In addressing the fundamental question of
units, the volume pushes at the boundaries of current debates and contributes
original new insight into the nature of language in interaction.
