Ebook: Historische Dialogforschung: Eine Einführung

Historical research on dialogue in the context of German linguistics is a relatively recent branch of pragmatic linguistic history and historiography, mostly represented in widely scattered individual studies. This workbook provides an overview of the central approaches to the linguistics of dialogue and an introduction to the methods and categories it employs. With numerous examples ranging from the »Hildebrandlied« to chatrooms and e-mails, it gives a graphic account of the reconstruction of historical dialogue structures. The introduction rounds off with test questions plus solution proposals and a glossary of the terms used.
