The linguistic realization of information packaging

L'A. propose une analyse contrastive destinee a determiner comment la presentation de l'information est realisee structuralement dans diverses langues. Il montre que l'anglais et beaucoup d'autres langues germaniques exploitent principalement l'intonation a des fins informationnelles, alors que d'autres langues, comme le catalan, privilegient plutot la syntaxe, et que dans d'autres groupes de langues encore, le correlat structural premier est morphologique. L'A. tente ainsi d'identifier un ensemble de primitifs lies a la presentation de l'information et appliques a des faits translinguistiques et examine la maniere dont ils interagissent avec d'autres facteurs structuraux, pragmatiques et semantiques
