Abstract:

This volume is dedicated to exploring the crossroads where complex sentences
and information management – more specifically information structure and
reference tracking – come together. Complex sentences are a highly relevant
but understudied domain for studying notions of IS and RT. On the one hand, a
complex sentence can be studied as a mini-unit of discourse consisting of two
or more elements describing events, situations, or processes, with its own
internal information-structural and referential organization. On the other
hand, complex sentences can be studied as parts of larger discourse
structures, such as narratives or conversations, in terms of how their
information-structural characteristics relate to this wider context. The book
offers new perspectives for the study of the interaction between complex
sentences and information management, and moreover adds typological breadth by
focusing on lesser studied languages from several parts of the world.
