Beschreibung
This volume explores the use of demonstratives in the structuring and management of discourse, and their role as engagement expressions, from a crosslinguistic perspective. It seeks to establish which types of discourse-related functions are commonly encoded by demonstratives, beyond the well-established reference-tracking and deictic uses, and also investigates which members of demonstrative paradigms typically take on certain functions. Moreover, it looks at the roles of non-deictic demonstratives, that is, members of the paradigm which are dedicated e.g. to contrastive, recognitional, or anaphoric functions and do not express deictic distinctions. Several of the studies also focus on manner demonstratives, which have been little studied from a crosslinguistic perspective. The volume thus broadens the scope of investigation of demonstratives to look at how their core functions interact with a wider range of discourse functions in a number of different languages. The volume covers languages from a range of geographical locations and language families, including Cushitic and Mande languages in Africa, Oceanic and Papuan languages in the Pacific region, Algonquian and Guaykuruan in the Americas, and Germanic, Slavic and Finno-Ugric languages in the Eurasian region. It also includes two papers taking a broader typological approach to specific discourse functions of demonstratives.

Über den Autor
Anna Margetts is a Senior Lecturer in Linguistics at Monash University. She studied at the University of Cologne, SUNY at Buffalo and in the Language & Cognition Group at the MPI for Psycholinguistics in Nijmegen. Her research interests include languages of the Pacific, language documentation, linguistic typology and change, the discourse-grammar interface, and the syntax-semantics mapping in event representation. She has published extensively on Saliba-Logea, an Oceanic language of Papua New Guinea, as well as on the crosslinguistic encoding of three-participant events, including caused motion events, and on the discourse functions of person deictics.
