Description du contenu de l'enseignement

Catherine Paulin (7,5h)
Objectifs
This course will present information structure as it helps explain why people encode things in different ways. We are constantly making choices about how to phrase our utterances. Core issues will be to investigate key notions that are used to understand how information is conveyed by linguistic means in order to fit into a specific context or discourse. The notions of theme, rheme; topic, focus; given, new will be tackled. Existential utterances, the passive, clefting will be studied in that they are structural strategies used in the dynamics of communication.
Students will contribute to the seminar with their own analysis of book chapters, research papers or practical analysis of texts on a weekly basis.

Monika Pukli (7,5h)
Information structure and phonology
In the second half of the seminar, students will discover how information packaging relatesto phonology. First, we will revisit two key concepts: duality of patterning, one of the basic principles of human language, and the notion of the phoneme as it developed from the beginning of the 20th century to its current usage. Then, we will look at English prosody and study informational structure in connection with affixation, compounding, rhythm and intonation.
Students will contribute to the seminar with their own analysis of research papers on a weekly basis. They will be expected to place phonological constructs in their epistemological background and to apply what they have learnt to examples from morpho-phonology and interactions from the phonology-syntax interface.
