Bridging the Gap between Conversation Analysis and Poetics: Studies in Talk-In-Interaction and Lite
(Routledge Research in Language and Communication) 1st Edition
by Raymond F. Person Jr. (Editor), Robin Wooffitt (Editor), John P. Rae (Editor)
This
collection extends the conversation beginning with Gail Jefferson’s
seminal 1996 article, "On the Poetics of Ordinary Talk," linking the
poetics of ordinary talk with the work of poets to bring together
critical perspectives on new data from talk-in-interaction and
applications of Jefferson’s poetics to literary discourse.
Bringing
together contributions from Conversation Analysis and literary
scholars, the book begins by analyzing the presentation which served as
the genesis for Jefferson’s article to highlight the occurrence of
poetics in institutional talk. The first section then provides an
in-depth examination of case studies from Conversation Analysis which
draw on new data from naturally occurring discourse. The second half
explores literary poetics as a form of institutional talk emerging from
the poetics of ordinary talk, offering new possibilities for
interpreting work in classics, biblical studies, folklore studies and
contemporary literature. Each chapter engages in a discussion of
Jefferson’s article toward reinforcing the relationships between the two
disciplines and indicating a way forward for interdisciplinary
scholarship.
The collection highlights the enduring influence of
Jefferson’s poetics to our understanding of language, both talk-in
interaction and literary discourse, making this book of particular
interest to students and researchers in Conversation Analysis, literary
studies, stylistics, and pragmatics.
