Abstract:

This book addresses the topic of linguistic categorization from a novel
perspective. While most of the early research has focused on how linguistic
systems reflect some pre-existing ways of categorizing experience, the
contributions included in this volume seek to understand how linguistic
resources of various nature (prosodic cues, affixes, constructions, discourse
markers, …) can be ‘put to work’ in order to actively build categories in
discourse and in interaction, to achieve social goals. This question is
addressed in different ways by researchers from different subfields of
linguistics, including psycholinguistics, conversation analysis, linguistic
typology and discourse pragmatics, and a major point of innovation is
represented in fact by the interdisciplinary nature of the volume and in the
systematic search for converging evidence.
