Product Description

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.

§15§§The book series is dedicated to the study of the multifaceted dynamics of wordplay as an interface phenomenon. The contributions aim to bring together approaches from various disciplines and present case studies on different communicative settings, including everyday language and literary communication, and thus offer fresh perspectives on wordplay in the context of linguistic innovation, language contact, and speaker-hearer-interaction. § §La collection vise à analyser la diversité de la dynamique du jeu de mots en tant que phénomène d'interface. Les contributions réunissent des approches de différentes disciplines et présentent des études de cas de situations de communication variées, incluant autant le langage quotidien que la communication littéraire. Ainsi, elles offrent de nouvelles perspectives sur le jeu de mots dans le contexte de l'innovation linguistique, du contact linguistique, et de l'interaction locuteur-interlocuteur.§§ §Die Buchreihe widmet sich §15§ einer Untersuchung der vielseitigen Dynamik des Wortspiels als Schnittstellenphänomen. Die Beiträge vereinigen Ansätze aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen und Fallstudien zu unterschiedlichen Kommunikationsfeldern, etwa der Alltagssprache und der literarischen Kommunikation. Damit eröffnen sie neue Perspektiven auf das Wortspiel im Kontext von sprachlicher Innovation, Sprachkontakt und Sprecher-Hörer-Interaktion. § §Editorial Board: Salvatore Attardo (Texas A〓 de Namur, Belgium), Dirk Geeraerts (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium), Raymond W.
