Abstract:

The existence of formulaic patterns has been attested to all languages of the
world. However, systematic research in this field has been focused on only a
few European standard languages with a rich literary tradition and a high
degree of written norm. It was on the basis of these data that the theoretical
framework and methodological approaches were developed.

The volume shifts this focus by centering the investigation on new data,
including data from lesser-used languages and dialects, extra-european
languages, linguistic varieties mostly used in spoken domains as well as at
previous historical stages of language development. Their inclusion challenges
the existing postulates at both a theoretical and methodological level.

Areas of interest include the following questions: What is formulaic in these
types of languages, varieties and dialects? Are the criteria developed within
the framework of phraseological research applicable to new data? Can any
specific types of formulaic patterns and/or any specific features of regular
(already known) types of formulaic patterns be observed and how do they
emerge? What methodological difficulties need to be overcome when dealing with
new data?
