Abstract:
This paper aims to account for Double Accessibility effects found in Korean. Clearing out confusions in the previous discussion on the phenomenon, it claims that Korean does not have a Double Access reading in a semantic sense, unlike English, but Double Accessibility effects arise as a result of pragmatic repair which is employed in order to interpret a focused indexical element causing a conflict in the interpretation process. The advantages of the pragmatic analysis defended in this paper over the movement analyses proposed in the literature will be shown in details.

Abstract:
This is a dissertation on how certain cognitive limitations inform a theory of knowledge. Explanations in terms of the pure indexical "I" indicate a class of cognitive limitations. "I" cannot be completely eliminated from any successful explanation of how the world is intelligible to me and only I can refer to myself with the indexical "I." This raises the possibility that there are thoughts that I can think that cannot be thought by anyone else. Given what an epistemological theory must say about the definition, structure, and instances of knowledge and epistemic merit in general, such l

Abstract:
This thesis consists of four essays and an introduction dedicated to two main topics: indexicality and presupposition. The first essay is concerned with an alleged problem for the standard treatment of indexicals on which their linguistic meanings are functions from context to content (so-called characters). Since most indexicals have their content settled, on an occasion of use, by the speaker’s intentions, some authors have argued that this standard picture is inadequate. By demonstrating that intentions can be seen as a parameter of the kind of context that characters operate on, these argu

Abstract:
Guided by the question of what does photography bring into being, 'Against Indexicality' is a proposition to rethink the foundation of the philosophy of photography - to rethink the supposed relation of truth between the photograph and the world. Taking Indexicality as a messy and convoluted conceptual field comprised of the notions of pointing, stillness, and fragmentation, this study works to untangle the three from each other, separately challenging each individual notion. In analysing each of the three through their conceptualisation by prominent thinkers, including Charles S. Peirce, Susa

Abstract:
This thesis proposes that there are two kinds of clauses: indexical clauses, which are evaluated with respect to the speech situation; and anaphoric clauses, which are evaluated with respect to a contextually-given (anaphoric) situation. Empirical motivation for this claim comes from the clause-typing system of Plains Cree, an Algonquian language spoken on the Canadian plains, which morpho-syntactically distinguishes between two types of clauses traditionally called INDEPENDENT and CONJUNCT orders. In the current analysis, the INDEPENDENT order instantiates indexical clauses, and the CONJUNC

Further, French feminists such as Hélène Cixous and Julia Kristeva use the linguistic concept of intertextuality to explain certain poetic uses of language that might cause what Luce Irigaray calls “irruption of the semiotic chora”—moments within language where boundaries in the semiotic chain of s

Abstract:
This thesis deals with jokes and gender as social meaning. Here gender identity is regarded as one kind of social meaning. The gender identity of the individual is produced in interaction with other persons and is also conditioned by cultural codes. Of particular interest is how social identity is constituted by linguistic means. This is discussed using a model of indexicality, i.e. how linguistic features index one or more dimensions of the social context. Especially the indirect and constitutive relations between language and gender are discussed in terms of stances, acts and activities. In

Abstract:
This thesis provides a comparative analysis of vowel quality in South African English (SAE) using the following data: firstly, the existing impressionistic literature on SAE and other relevant accents of English, the former of which is subject to a critical review; secondly, acoustic data from a similar range of accents, including new SAE data, collected and instrumentally analyzed specifically for the purposes of this research. These various data are used to position, on both a descriptive and theoretical level, the SAE vowel system. In addition, and in the service of providing a careful reco

Il s'agit d'une thèse portant sur les prépositions en, dans, pour et par. Notre recherche conduite dans la perspective de la Théorie des opérations prédicatives et énonciatives (TOPE) d'A. Culioli, consiste à démontrer l'existence d'une identité pour chacune de ces prépositions, et comment cette identité se manifeste effectivement dans ses divers emplois. Une préposition étant considérée comme un relateur entre deux éléments X (le repéré) et y (le repère)-que nous articulons par la formule X prép. Y-, nous entendons par identité d'une préposition les principes déterminant la spécificité du rôl

Abstract:
This dissertation is about the nature of perspectival thoughts and the context-sensitivity of the language used to express them. It focuses on two kinds of perspectival thoughts: ‘subjective' evaluative thoughts about matters of personal taste, such as 'Beetroot is delicious' or 'Skydiving is fun', and first-personal or de se thoughts about oneself, such as 'I am hungry' or 'I have been fooled.' The dissertation defends of a novel form of relativism about truth - the idea that the truth of some (but not all) perspectival thought and talk is relative to the perspective of an evaluating subject

Abstract:
This compilation thesis engages with practices that in some way place stakes in the social existence of Övdalsk (also älvdalska, Elfdalian, Övdalian), a marginal form of Scandinavian used mainly in Sweden’s Älvdalen municipality. The practices at hand range from early 20th century descriptive dialectology and contemporary lay-linguistics to language advocacy and language political debate. The four studies focus on the logic by which such practices operate, on the historically produced visions that they bring into play, as well as on the symbolic effects that they have produced.

Abstract:
Les problemes de la definition sont, dit-on souvent, resolus (ou dissous) depuis l'avenement de la logique contemporaine et le triomphe connexe du nominalisme : il n'y a de definitions que de mots ; les definitions de choses sont, au mieux, des propositions sans specificite, au pire, des petitions de principe, voire un moyen privilegie pour la construction de pseudoconcepts, l'instrument de la confusion de pensee. Or, une consideration un peu attentive montre que les logiciens et philosophes contemporains sont generalement plus nuances ; se degagent de leur etude la reconnaissance d'une grande

Abstract:
Ce travail est un examen critique de la «conception indexicale de la subjectivité», thèse selon laquelle le mode déictique de la référence, tout particulièrement à soi, serait constitutif du phénomène mental de la subjectivité. Trois questions cumulatives sont traitées. Existe-t-il une forme d'indexicalité mentale, comme il existe une indexicalité linguistique? Si oui, comment-transposer au mieux, sur le plan mental, notre connaissance du fonctionnement des déictiques dans le discours? Enfin, le caractère déictique putatif de certains états psychologiques suffirait-il à rendre compte du phénom
