LIN 01: UNDERSTANDING LANGUAGE
Tutor: Gillian Brown
Day and time: Tuesday 10.00 - 11.00
Venue: Thirkill Room, Old Court, Clare College (up 20 steps)
Terms: Autumn.
Number of places: 20
Philosophy, psychology, anthropology, literary criticism and linguistics all contribute to this area of enquiry. How do we construct a context, involving a particular set of background knowledge, to work out what a speaker means? How does speaker-centred language assist in this? How can the speaker 'stage' a sentence in terms of choosing a helpful beginning and organising it so that we move from shared information to new information? What determines how we construct narratives? How much do we rely on a shared understanding of the metaphorical structures which permeate our language? (Enthusiasts might try G Brown Speakers, listeners and communication. CUP chapters 1, 2 & 7 - more technical than the course will be!)
Note: 9 weeks only. Starts 6th October
