The Grammar of the Utterance

How to Do Things with Ibero-Romance

Beschreibung

This book explores conversational units of language - vocatives, interjections, particles, and illocutionary complementizers - in Ibero-Romance languages. It draws on naturalistic data and elicited judgements to offer new insights into colloquial grammar and morphosyntactic variation in Romance and into the organization of grammar more broadly.

Autor

Alice Corr is Assistant Professor in the Department of Modern Languages, University of Birmingham, where she specializes in the comparative morphosyntax, dialectology, and history of the Romance languages. She was previously Drapers' Company Research Fellow at Pembroke College, and Lumley Bye-Fellow in Linguistics at Magdalene College, University of Cambridge. Focusing on non-standard synchronic and historical variation in varieties originating in the (Western) Iberian Peninsula, her research seeks to reconcile theoretical and empirical work in this area with conceptual insight drawn from outside conventional disciplinary boundaries. She is co-editor, with Anna Pineda, of Theoretical Linguistics in the Pre-University Classroom (OUP, forthcoming).
