Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover, vii + 292 pages, NOT ex-library. Fine interior: clean and bright throughout, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps; firmly bound. Gentle external shelfwear, fine scratches. Published without a dust jacket. -- The volume contributes to historical pragmatics an important chapter on what has so far not been paid adequate attention to, i.e. historical metapragmatics. More particularly, the collected papers apply a meta-communicative approach to historical texts by focusing on lexis that either directly or metaphorically identifies or characterizes entire forms of communication or single acts and act sequences or minor units. Within the context of their use, such lexical expressions, in fact, provide a key for disclosing historical forms of communication; taken out of context, they build the meta-communicative lexicon. The articles follow three principal distinctions in that they investigate the meta-communicative profile of genres, meta-communicative lexical sets and meta-communicative ethics and ideologies. They cover a broad spectrum of text types that span the entire history of the English language from Anglo-Saxon chronicles to computer-mediated communication. -- Contents: Introduction (by Axel Hübler); Part 1.
