Abstract:
In this tribute to Knud Lambrecht, a pioneer of Information Structure, a
diverse group of scholars examines the intersection of syntax, discourse,
pragmatics, and semantics. The six chapters in the first section of the volume
consider issues of grammar with new theoretical and applied insights,
pertaining to grammatical constructions such as left dislocation,
unaccusatives, null complements, and passives. While the first half of the
book presents studies involving a range of languages from Russian to Irish to
Italian, the second section is dedicated to papers focused on French. These
five chapters feature the application of Construction Grammar and/or
Information Structure frameworks to prosody and second language processing, as
well as to several distinctive spoken French constructions: clefts, left
dislocations, and interrogatives. Collectively, this book offers substantial
reading for those interested in the juncture of structure and context, notably
a critical take on the important legacy of a preeminent linguist.
