It seeks to establish which types of discourse-related functions are commonly encoded by demonstratives, beyond the well-established reference-tracking and deictic uses, and also investigates which members of demonstrative paradigms typically take on certain functions. Moreover, it looks at the roles of non-deictic demonstratives, that is, members of the paradigm which are dedicated e.g. to contrastive, recognitional, or anaphoric functions and do not express deictic distinctions. Several of the studies also focus on manner demonstratives, which have been little studied from a crosslinguistic perspective. The volume thus broadens the scope of investigation of demonstratives to look at how their core functions interact with a wider range of discourse functions in a number of different languages. The volume covers languages from a range of geographical locations and language families, including Cushitic and Mande languages in Africa, Oceanic and Papuan languages in the Pacific region, Algonquian and Guaykuruan in the Americas, and Germanic, Slavic and Finno-Ugric languages in the Eurasian region. It also includes two papers taking a broader typological approach to specific discourse functions of demonstratives. 410 $aTopics at the Grammar-Discourse Interface 606 $aBiography & Autobiography$2bisacsh 608 $aBiographies.$2lcgft 610 $aBiography & Autobiography 610 $aLanguage Arts & Disciplines 610 $aLinguistics 615 7$aBiography & Autobiography 702 $aTreis$b Yvonne 702 $aMargetts$b Anna 702 $aNęss$b A?shild 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910645967403321 996 $aDemonstratives in discourse$92271916 997 $aUNINA
