Abstract

Was zeigen uns Wortspiele über das Funktionieren von Sprache und Kommunikation? Wie groß sind die kreativen Freiräume, die im Wortspiel genutzt werden - und wo gibt es Regeln und Grenzen des Spiels? Sprachspielerinnen und -spieler der Gegenwart präsentieren in Texten und Interviews ihre Gedanken zum kunstvollen Umgang mit Sprache und zu grundlegenden Eigenschaften des Spiels mit Wörtern und Sprache. Beiträge aus Bereichen wie Literatur, Film, Kabarett und Poetry Slam werden ergänzt durch Kurzbeiträge aus der Wissenschaft, die unterschiedliche Perspektiven der Analyse von Wortspielen aufzeigen. Der Band greift damit theoretische Fragen auf, die in den anderen Bänden der Buchreihe The Dynamics of Wordplay erörtert werden. Im Rahmen der Brückenschläge zwischen Wissenschaft und Praxis ergeben sich vielfältige Querverbindungen, und es zeigen sich übereinstimmende Beobachtungen wie auch sich wechselseitig ergänzende Perspektiven auf das Wortspiel in seiner Vielseitigkeit und Komplexität. What does wordplay teach us about the function of language and communication? What creative open spaces are used in wordplay, and what are the rules and limits that govern the game? The volume presents ideas of masters of wordplay from literature, film, cabaret, and poetry slams along with brief scientific analyses. The dialogue between theory and practice reveals the diverse complexity of language play.

Abstract

This work analyzes current borrowings and integration of loan words in the French language and in other Romance languages. The studied phenomena are analyzed exclusively from the perspective of the speakers. The main aim is to elucidate the complexity of these processes? how language undergoes change? and to work out a model which is adequate with respect to communication theory. In particular, the study takes into account the occurrence of competing forms of loan words that differ from each other in their degree of integration.

Abstract

Les jeux de mots peuvent être considérés comme un véritable phénomène d'interface. Ils apparaissent à la fois dans la communication "idienne et dans la littérature, et peuvent avoir des fonctions diverses: ils peuvent être distrayants et comiques, déguiser un sujet tabou ou encore influencer la manière dont on perçoit le caractère du locuteur. Une autre caractéristique fondamentale des jeux de mots est celle de servir à la réflexion sur la langue et sur la communication. Les jeux de mots font apparaître des caractéristiques du langage littéraire dans la communication "idienne, et incitent à analyser les œuvres littéraires selon une perspective linguistique. Les deux premiers volumes de la série The Dynamics of Wordplay visent à réunir des contributions linguistiques et littéraires sur les techniques du jeu de mots et ses relations aux innovations linguistiques en général. Ces réflexions sont complétées par une série d'études de cas qui analysent l'usage du jeu de mots chez différents auteurs et dans différents contextes historiques. Ainsi, partant de situations de communication très variées, les contributions permettent de reconsidérer la dynamique du jeu de mots dans toutes ses facettes.

Abstract

This volume focuses on realisations of wordplay in different cultures and social and historical contexts, and brings together various research traditions of approaching wordplay. Together with the volume DWP 7, it assembles selected papers presented at the interdisciplinary conference The Dynamics of Wordplay / La dynamique du jeu de mots (Trier, 2016) and stresses the inherent dynamicity of wordplay and wordplay research.

Abstract

Wordplay can be seen as a genuine interface phenomenon. It can be found both in everyday communication and in literary texts, and it can fulfil a range of functions - it may be entertaining and comical, it may be used to conceal taboo, and it may influence the way in which the speaker's character is perceived. Moreover, wordplay also reflects on language and communication: it reveals surprising alternative readings, and emphasizes the phonetic similarity of linguistic signs that also points towards relations on the level of content. Wordplay unravels characteristics of literary language in everyday communication and opens up the possibility to analyze literary texts from a linguistic perspective. The first two volumes of the series The Dynamics of Wordplay therefore aim at bringing together contributions from linguistics and literary studies, focusing on theoretical issues such as basic techniques of wordplay, and its relationship to genres and discourse traditions. These issues are complemented by a series of case studies on the use of wordplay in individual authors and specific historical contexts. The contributions offer a fresh look on the multifaceted dynamics of wordplay in different communicative settings.

Abstract

Ce volume se dédie à l'analyse du jeu de mots dans des textes et contextes variés, explorant les différentes appréciations du jeu de mots au fil du temps ainsi que les intermédiaires entre jeux de mots et phénomènes annexes. Comme DWP 6, DWP 7 présente les aboutissements du colloque interdisciplinaire The Dynamics of Wordplay / La dynamique du jeu de mots (Trèves, 2016), qui font ressortir les dynamiques propres à ce champ de recherche. This volume is dedicated to the analysis of wordplay in a variety of texts and contexts. It explores the evolution of wordplay and its appreciation over time, as well as the intermediate stages between wordplay and related phenomena. Together with DWP 6, DWP 7 gathers selected papers from the interdisciplinary symposium The Dynamics of Wordplay / La dynamique du jeu de mots (Trier, 2016).

Abstract

This volume serves to illustrate the promising insights to be gained when cross-fertilizing Cognitive Linguistics and contact linguistics, which each hold crucial ingredients to an encompassing study of contact-induced variation and change. Combining the study of the individual mind with the study of shared context, bridging research on experience and perspective with research on variation and change, and tackling the methodological complexities that this empirical approach to mental categorization entails, help us determine how the meaningful units that make up language are categorized and structured in the bi- and multilingual mind and, by extension, in any human mind. Together, the ten papers in this volume reveal the complexities of the interaction between usage, meaning and mind in contact-induced variation and change, which we hope will inspire future research exploring the possibilities of the cross-fertilization we have labeled Cognitive Contact Linguistics.

Abstract

Discourse Traditions are a key concept of diachronic Romance linguistics. The present manual aims to establish this approach at an international level by assembling contributions that introduce its theoretical foundations, discuss connections with alternative approaches of text and discourse analysis, show the relevance of Discourse Traditions for the history of Romance languages, and explore possibilities for future applications of the concept.
