Download or read book Reference and Referent Accessibility written by Thorstein Fretheim and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers in this volume are concerned with the question of how a speaker's intended referent is interpreted by the addressee. Topics include the interpretation of coreferential vs. disjoint reference, the role of intonation, syntactic form and animacy in reference understanding, and the way in which general principles of utterance interpretation constrain possible interpretations of referring expressions. The collection arises from a workshop on reference and referent accessibility which was held at the 4th International Pragmatics Conference in Kobe, Japan, July 25-30, 1993.
