Die Diskurslinguistik an der Universität zu Köln untersucht pragmatische, kognitive und semiotische Aspekte langer Diskurseinheiten. Dabei wird „Diskurs“ als Domäne des Sprachgebrauchs (vgl. Du Bois) aufgefasst. Des Weiteren wird er als Prozess und nicht als Produkt betrachtet (vgl. Widdowson). Die Schwerpunkte in der Forschung und Lehre beinhalten die Schnittstelle zwischen Syntax und Pragmatik, die Struktur des Diskurses über den Satz hinaus, konzeptuelles Mapping, Blending und die Kompressionsprozesse, die hinter figurativer Sprache stehen. Zudem steht dabei der Zusammenhang zwischen Texten und soziokulturellen Kontexten zeitgenössischer und antiker Quellen (z. B. Kommunikationsstrategien, Textproduktion und -performanz) im Vordergrund, ebenso wie der theoretischer Hintergrund von multi- und intermodalen Eigenschaften mündlicher Genres. Synchrone und diachrone Ansätze bedienen sich moderner theoretischer Frameworks bei der Untersuchung linguistischer Phänomene in altgriechischen Korpora. Korpora aus anderen Sprachen werden nach und nach hinzugefügt. Die Forschungs- und Lehrgruppe freut sich auf weitere Zusammenarbeit mit den anderen Abteilungen des Instituts für Linguistik sowie anderen Instituten innerhalb und außerhalb der Universität zu Köln.

  Authors' Note: This is the print version of a freely accessible online edition published in 2016; see: http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:hul.ebook:CHS_BonifaziA_DrummenA_deKreijM.Particles_in_Ancient_Greek_Discourse.2016. Since 2016, the authors incorporated updates in the research chapters, and completed the online-only part of the work, the Online Repository of Particle Studies (ORPS; see (http://nrs.harvard.edu/URN-3:HLNC:CHS.Online_Repository_of_Particle_Studies, completely searchable).The print version encompasses all the research chapters (Parts I to IV) in one tome. Only the print edition contains the Index of Subjects, conceived as a repertoire of recurring descriptions and linguistics topics that have informed and oriented the authors' research. The online edition compensates for that by allowing readers to search for any term anywhere. At the time of printing, the body texts of the online and print edition are identical. The numbering of parts, chapters, and paragraphs completely coincides, for ease of reference. Both editions include the bibliography incorporating all full references, including those of ORPS.     

Abstract: Particles are pervasive in Ancient Greek. Particles in Ancient Greek Discourse (PAGD) offers new tools for making sense of these words, through an analysis of particle use across five genres of ancient Greek discourse: epic, lyric, tragedy, comedy, and historiography. The research explores multiple discourse phenomena that influence the force of particles and particle combinations. The work has meta-scientific, theoretical, and analytic goals. Meta-scientifically, the authors aim to reveal a wealth of particle studies covering more than two millennia of research up to the present. On the theoretical level, by taking stock of current work on particles - both within and beyond ancient Greek - they aim to raise awareness of dimensions of language besides the syntactic organization of texts and the semantics of their content. Analytically, they intend to study particles in situ, within their co-text (co-occurring verbal features) and context, in order to identify and explain patterns of particle use. The ultimate goal is to make readers look at ancient Greek particles, and through them at ancient Greek literature, with fresh eyes. The tome includes the analysis of 461 passages, consistently accompanied by English translations. The comments offer plenty of grammatical explanations, and often challenge traditional readings and labels. Through the discussion of ancient Greek instances, the book can be seen as a contribution to general topics in discourse analysis and pragmatics such as anaphoric comprehension, dialogic syntax, discourse acts and moves, Conversation Analysis, stancetaking, segmentation, and coordination, besides, of course, discourse particles.
