Abstract:
Pragmatics of Fiction provides systematic orientation in the emerging field of
studying pragmatics with/in fictional data. It provides an authoritative and
accessible overview of this versatile new field in its methodological and
theoretical richness. Giving center stage to fictional language allows
scholars to review key concepts in sociolinguistics such as genre, style,
voice, stance, dialogue, participation structure or features of orality and
literariness. The contributors explore language as one of the creative tools
to craft story worlds and characters by drawing on concepts such as regional,
social and ethnic language variation, as well as multilingualism. Themes such
as emotion, taboo language or impoliteness in fiction receive attention just
as the challenges of translation and dubbing, the creation of past and future
languages, the impact of fictional language on language change or the fuzzy
boundaries of narratives. Each contribution, written by a leading specialist,
gives a succinct, representative and up-to-date overview of research
questions, theories, methods and recent developments in the field.
