Abstract:

Pragmatics forms nowadays an integral part of the description not only of
modern languages but also of ancient languages such as Latin and Ancient
Greek. This book explores various pragmatic phenomena in these two languages,
which are accessible through corpora consisting of a broad range of text
types. It comprises empirical synchronic studies that deal with three main
topics: (i) speech acts and pragmatic markers, (ii) word order, and (iii)
discourse markers and particles. The specificity of this book consists in the
discussion and application of various methodological approaches. It provides
new insights into the pragmatic phenomena encountered, compares, where
possible, the results of the investigation of the two languages, and draws
conclusions of a more general nature. The volume will be of interest to
linguists working on pragmatics in general and to scholars of Latin and
Ancient Greek in particular.
