Workshop on Modality, Modal Particles (in German or other languages),
and Discourse
University of Messina
COSPECS Department
Organizers:
Alessandra Giorgi and Alessandro Capone

Modality is usually dealt with in terms of the following categories:
epistemic modality, alethic modality, deontic modality. We may reserve
a different category of modal expressions for terms dealing with
discourse, shared knowledge, and discourse participation. Some modal
expressions clearly have propositional status, while others, whether
integrated or not from a syntactic point of view, do not necessarily
have a propositional status but are more interactional in nature.
The workshop is carried out within the “Rethinking, Understanding
Modal particles (RUM)” project and received funding from the European
Union Next-GenerationEU – National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP)
