Lars Bülow – författare

The series Sprache und Wissen [Language and Knowledge] is a publication platform for high-quality papers on German linguistics with interdisciplinary focus. The series takes on current trends in the scientific community from a linguistic perspective in order to show how general and expert knowledge are made possible through language and gain perspective through it. The linguistic treatment of discursive knowledge formats aims to advance the field of linguistics and other sciences interested in language in an innovative way. The series presents papers with semantic, pragmatic, and syntactic approaches from the perspective of variety-specific as well as text- and discourse-linguistic cognitive interest. The series welcomes monographs as well as systematically-structured anthologies and conference proceedings. Editorial Board:Markus HundtWolf-Andreas LiebertJuliane SchröterBerbeli WanningIngo H.

This volume offers several empirical, methodological, and theoretical approaches to the study of observable variation within individuals on various linguistic levels. With a focus on German varieties, the chapters provide answers on the following questions (inter alia):Which linguistic and extra-linguistic factors explain intra-individual variation? Is there observable intra-individual variation that cannot be explained by linguistic and extra-linguistic factors? Can group-level results be generalised to individual language usage and vice versa? Is intra-individual variation indicative of actual patterns of language change? How can intra-individual variation be examined in historical data?Consequently, the various theoretical, methodological and empirical approaches in this volume offer a better understanding of the meaning of intra-individual variation for patterns of language development, language variation and change.The inter- and transdisciplinary nature of the volume is an exciting new frontier, and the results of the studies in this book provide a wealth of new findings as well as challenges to some of the existing findings and assumptions regarding the nature of intra-individual variation.

Die Beiträge des Bandes zeigen, wie die Hinwendung der linguistischen Pragmatik zu digitalen Gegenständen und digitalen Methoden die pragmatische Theorie und Methodologie in vielerlei Hinsicht neu konturiert.

Die Beiträge des Bandes befassen sich aus synchroner und diachroner Perspektive mit Reanalyse-Prozessen, die unter dem Schlagwort sprachliche Remotivierung zusammengefasst werden können. Dabei handelt es sich im weitesten Sinne formseitig um remotivierende Resegmentierungen und inhaltsseitig um semantische Remotivierungen. Das Buch bietet einen Überblick über Prozesse sprachlicher Remotivierung in verschiedenen Verwendungsdomänen, in denen sprachlichen Zeichen eine zentrale Funktion zukommt.
