Abstract:

This book addresses different linguistic and philosophical aspects of
referring to the self in a wide range of languages from different language
families, including Amharic, English, French, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin,
Newari (Sino-Tibetan), Polish, Tariana (Arawak), and Thai. In the domain of
speaking about oneself, languages use a myriad of expressions that cut across
grammatical and semantic categories, as well as a wide variety of
constructions. Languages of Southeast and East Asia famously employ a great
number of terms for first person reference to signal honorification. The
number and mixed properties of these terms make them debatable candidates for
pronounhood, with many grammar-driven classifications opting to classify them
with nouns. Some languages make use of egophors or logophors, and many exhibit
an interaction between expressing the self and expressing evidentiality qua
the epistemic status of information held from the ego perspective.
