Workshop: How much is too much? The one-new-idea constraint and related phenomena at the information-intonation interface

Die von Prof. Dr. Uta Reinöhl geleitete Emmy-Noether-Forschungsgruppe zur nicht-hierarchischen Syntax (NonGram) freut sich, den folgenden Workshop ankündigen zu können. Der Workshop ist auch der letzte des Forschungsprojekts:

"This workshop assembles researching the packaging of information relative to intonation units. Seminal studies including Chafe (1979, 1994), Givón (1983), and Pawley & Syder (1983) have suggested universal cognitive constraints on how much new information may be expressed in a prosodic chunk, e.g. Chafe’s “one new idea constraint”. Despite their wide-reaching implications, and their impact on fields including discourse analysis, psycholinguistics, and typology, these claims still largely await testing for more languages as well as discourse types."
