Meeting Description:
A One-day MPI Workshop on the Intersection Between a Study of Prosody and
Interaction
This workshop was designed to facilitate cooperation between
interactionists (whether from a linguistics, sociology, or communication
background) and (psycho)linguists who focus on prosody. In particular, in
the course of delivering papers and group discussion, we hope that we will
depart with a better understanding of the following issues:
1) What do we know about the functions of prosody in language use?
2) Which part of the linguistic system (from phonetic to interactional
discourse level) is influenced or modulated by prosody?
3) What methodological tools exist for systematically investigating this?
4) What issues exist in using these tools given that some of what the
tools measure cannot be detected or will be heard differently by the human ear?
In short, what can interactionists learn about studying prosody, and what
can linguists who study prosody learn about studying interaction?
