Spontaneous Spoken English: An Integrated Approach to the Emergent Grammar of Speech: Studies in English Language

Autor Alexander Haselow
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 noi 2017
A new, thought-provoking book on the theory of grammar and language processing, based on the analysis of authentic speech produced in real time. Drawing on insights from cognitive psychology, neurology and conversation analysis, the author offers a fascinating, easy-to-follow account of why spoken English is structured the way it is. The traditional product-based approach to grammar is given up in favour of a speaker-based, dynamic perspective that integrates language-structural, neurocognitive and dialogic aspects of speech production. Based on fresh empirical research Haselow argues that grammatical knowledge rests upon two cognitive principles of linearization called 'microgrammar' and 'macrogrammar', which are shown to interact in various ways. The book discusses a broad range of speech phenomena under an integrated framework, such as the omnipresence of 'unintegrated' constituents (e.g. discourse markers), ellipses, or the allegedly 'fragmented' character of syntax, and explains the mechanisms of processing efficiency that guide syntactic planning.

Recenzii

'… this book represents an illuminating interdisciplinary study that broadens the perspective of linguistic analysis by considering not only the context of an individual interaction, but also the cognitive mechanisms that give rise to the emergent grammar of spontaneous speech. Without doubt, this book can be used as a good reference book for students and researchers who are interested in interactional linguistics and cognitive linguistics.' Haiping Wu, Journal of Pragmatics
'This monograph evidently carries massive implications for research into grammar and linguistic structure since it broadens the notion of grammar and provides an alternative approach to it, enabling researchers to investigate the emergent grammar of speech from an integrated perspective, differing from the monolithic, 'fixed-code' and sentence based approach to language and grammar through which grammar has been described and analysed. The book is also of immense significance to academics in discourse studies, a field where spontaneous spoken language data have become the mainstream research objects.' Baicheng Zhang, Discourse Studies
