Chinese Discourse Studies

The Politics of Englishes Today

Shi- xu, Zhejiang University, China

Edited by Ruanni Tupas, National Institute of Education, Singapore 'I'm proud to be associated, even in so small a way, with this radical academic-interventionist enterprise that examines a wide range of key issues and implications surrounding the systemic and extrasystemic inequalities enforced against non-dominant Englishes.

PRAGMATICS The Norms of Assertion

Linking Form and Meaning

Truth, Lies, and Warrant

Studies on Selected Control Patterns in Recent English

Rachel McKinnon, College of Charleston, USA

Juhani Rudanko, University of Tampere, Finland

When we make claims to each other, we're asserting. But what does it take to assert well? Do we need to know what we're talking about? This book argues that we don't. In fact, it argues that in some special contexts, we can lie.

This book documents changes and trends in English predicate complementation. In-depth case studies of grammatical patterns presented here uncover new links between form and meaning in these constructions, offering fresh insights into explanatory principles to account for variation and change in the system of English predicate complementation.

Contents: 1. The Norms of Assertion * 2. Assertion and Speech Acts * 3. Norms of Assertion and Normativity * 4. The Supportive Reasons Norm * 5. The Lottery Paradox * 6. Moore’s Paradox * 7. ‘How Do You Know?’ and Challenges to Assertions * 8. Performance Normativity * 9. Supporting the Supportive Reasons Norm * 10. Assertion and Isolated Second-Hand Knowledge * 11.

Rachel Szekely, Long Island University, USA This book contains an original analysis of the existential there-sentence from a philosophicallinguistic perspective. At its core is the claim that there-sentences' form is distinct from that of ordinary subject–predicate sentences, and that this fundamental difference explains the construction's unusual grammatical and discourse properties.

GENERAL LINGUISTICS The Function and Use of TO and OF in Multi-Word Units

The Intelligent Mind On the Genesis and Constitution of Discursive Thought

Michael Pace-Sigge, University of Eastern Finland

Richard Dien Winfield, University of Georgia, USA

The highly frequent word items TO and OF are often conceived merely as prepositions, carrying little meaning in themselves. This book disputes that notion by analysing the usage patterns found for OF and TO in different sets of text corpora.

The Intelligent Mind conceives the psychological reality of thought and language, explaining how intelligence develops from intuition to representation and then to linguistic interaction and thinking.Overcoming the prevailing dogmas regarding how discursive reason emerges, this book secures the psychological possibility of the philosophy of mind.

Contents: 1. Introduction * 2. The Background * 3. OF and TO Usage in Fiction * 4. OF and TO in Semi-prepared Speech * 5. Usage in Spoken Texts * 6. Usage patterns for OF and TO in British English * 7. Implications for the Teaching of English * 8. Conclusion

STYLISTICS On Voice in Poetry

Stylistic Approaches to Nigerian Fiction

The Work of Animation

Daria Tunca, University of Liège, Belgium 'In discussing writers who belong to the 'postAchebean' generation of Nigerian writing from the perspective of what its author terms 'African stylistics', Stylistic Approaches to Nigerian Fiction fills a notable gap in research. This book is distinguished by the author's concern to relate stylistic analysis to social and cultural specificities, by her exemplary exposition of the theories to which she has recourse, and by an eloquent lightness of touch that makes reading her work a pleasure. Stylistic Approaches to Nigerian Fiction deserves recognition in the wider field of post-colonial writing.' – Professor Geoffrey Davis, RWTH Aachen University, Germany Drawing on the discipline of stylistics, this book introduces a series of methodological tools and applies them to works by well-known Nigerian writers, including Abani, Adichie and Okri. In doing so, it demonstrates how attention to form fosters understanding of content in their work, as well as in African and postcolonial literatures more widely.

David Nowell Smith, University of East Anglia, UK What do we mean by 'voice' in poetry? In this work, David Nowell Smith teases out the diverse meanings of 'voice', from a poem's soundworld to the rhetorical gestures through which poems speak to us, in order to embark on a philosophical exploration of the concept of voice itself.
