Addressing between System and Performance
Ed. by Sonnenhauser, Barbara / Noel Aziz Hanna, Patrizia
Aims and Scope
Vocatives have rarely been comprehensively discussed in their various facets. With 12 contributions covering the diversity of vocative marking, structures, and functions, as well as the relevance of vocatives for theoretical and methodological reasoning, this volume contributes to closing a significant gap in linguistic research. It provides a detailed picture of the vocative as a structure between 'system' and 'performance'.
