Dissertation Abstract:

This study deals with three groups of discourse markers in German: (i)
disjuncts and attitudinal adverbials (henceforth ''perspectival adverbials''),
(ii) focus particles (''paradigm-scanning adverbials'') and (iii) modal
particles. The starting point of the analysis is the heuristic notion of
''Otherness at work'', i.e. the constitutive role of coexisting heterogeneous
viewpoints: the three groups of discourse markers, each of which has the
status of a functional class with recurring distributional properties,
correspond to three modes of Otherness. First, an utterance can be seen as
expressing a biased and selective perspective on ''What there is''. It thus
coexists with other, possible yet dispreferred perspectives. Modal adverbials,
argumentative disjuncts and metalinguistic markers are various subtypes of
these perspectival adverbials. Further, the utterance (or a constituent
thereof) can be located into a set of conflicting alternatives thanks to
various focussing strategies. It is necessary to distinguish between
focus-sensitive adverbials as a whole, the functional class of
paradigm-scanning adverbials, and the lexical set of contrastive adverbs that
can access the aforementioned function. The traditional class of ''focus
particle'' is thus deconstructed along three different, non-parallel levels.
Finally, constitutive otherness can stand for conflicting or mixed views about
the validity of the propositional content. This kind of Otherness, which can
(but needs not) correspond to modal intersubjectivisation, is the semantic
domain of modal particles, which are analyzed here in their interaction with
sentence mood.
