Participants use prosodic cues, in co-occurrence with syntactic and lexical cues, to contextualize turn-constructional units as 'emphatic'. Only realizations of prosodic categories that are marked in relation to surrounding uses of these categories have the power to contextualize units as displaying 'more-than-normal involvement'. In the appropriate context, and in cooccurrence with syntactic and lexical cues and sequential position, the context-sensitive interpretation of this involvement is 'emphasis'. Prosodic marking is used in addition to various unmarked cues that signal and constitute different activity types in conversation. Emphatic style highlights and reinforms particular conversational activities, and makes certain types of recipient responses locally relevant. In particular, switches from non-emphatic to emphatic style are used to contextualize 'peaks of involvement' or 'climaxes' in story-telling. These are shown in the paper to be 'staged' by speakers and treated by recipients as marked activities calling for displays of alignment with respect to the matter at hand. Signals of emphasis are deployable as techniques for locally organizing demonstrations of shared understanding and participant reciprocity in conversational interaction.}, language = {en} } @misc{Selting1993, author = {Selting, Margret}, title = {Voranstellungen vor den Satz : zur grammatischen Form und interaktiven Funktion von Linksversetzung und Freiem Thema in Deutschland}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus-41958}, year = {1993}, abstract = {Inhalt: 1.

In our data, this style of speaking is not deployed throughout the speakers' conversations, butonly in particular turns and turn-constructional units (TCUs). The utterances most typical of this style exhibit specific combinations of syntactic and prosodic features that are unusual for colloquial and/or regionalized varieties of German. Among the structures recurrently found are specific kinds of pre- and post-positioned constituents before and after their 'host' sentences, the separation of turn-constructional units into very short prosodic units, the deployment of both lexical stress as well as utterance accentuation as a resource for stylistic variation, and the constitution of particular rhythmic patterns.

I show that, apart from the preference for three-part lists described by Jefferson (1990), lists are embedded in a larger three-component structure that the list is the middle part of. For lists proper, I suggest to differentiate between closed and open lists that are produced with different kinds of practices. It is the prosody that is used to suggest the list as made up of a closed or an open number of list items, irrespective of its syntactic embedding. I then concentrate on open lists, in particular their intonation. Open lists may be produced with different kinds of, albeit similar, intonation contours. But it is not so much the particular intonation contour that is constitutive of lists, but a variety of similar contours plus the repetition of the chosen contour for at least some or even all of the list items. Furthermore, intonation is deployed to suggest the interpretation of a potential final list item as either a designed list completer or as another designed item of the list. The design of this final list item as a completer or as another list item is used as a practice to signal the non-completion or completion of the list proper. But even after completing the list proper, the larger three-component structure also has to be closed in order to embed and accommodate the list into the surrounding sequential interaction. For the analysis of the practices of list construction I am concentrating on the role of prosody, especially intonation, giving evidence to show that intonation is indeed one of the methodically used constitutive cues that makes the production and structuring of lists recognizable for recipients.}, language = {en} } @article{SeltingSandig1995, author = {Selting, Margret and Sandig, Barbara}, title = {Sektion Textlinguistik und Stilistik : Schwerpunkt 'Sprech- und Gespr{\"a}chsstile' ; Teil 2}, year = {1995}, language = {de} } @article{Selting2008, author = {Selting, Margret}, title = {Linguistic resources for the management of interaction}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{Selting2011, author = {Selting, Margret}, title = {Prosody and unit-construction in an ethnic style : the case of Turkish German and its use and function in conversation}, isbn = {978-90-272-3488-9}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{KernSelting2013, author = {Kern, Friederike and Selting, Margret}, title = {Conversation analysis and interactional linguistics}, isbn = {978-1-405-19843-1}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @article{Selting1994, author = {Selting, Margret}, title = {Emphatic speech style - with special focus on the prosodic signalling of heightened emotive involvement in conversation}, year = {1994}, language = {en} } @article{SeltingSandig1994, author = {Selting, Margret and Sandig, Barbara}, title = {Sektion Textlinguistik und Stilistik : Schwerpunkt 'Sprech- und Gespr{\"a}chsstile' ; Teil 1}, year = {1994}, language = {de} } @article{Selting2010, author = {Selting, Margret}, title = {Affectivity in conversational storytelling : an analysis of displays of anger or indignation in complaint stories}, issn = {1018-2101}, year = {2010}, abstract = {This paper reports on some recent work on affectivity, or emotive involvement, in conversational storytelling. After presenting the approach, some case studies of the display and management of affectivity in storytelling in telephone and face-to-face conversations are presented. The analysis reconstructs the display and handling of affectivity by both storyteller and story recipient. In particular, I describe the following kinds of resources: the verbal and segmental display: Rhetorical, lexico-semantic, syntactic, phonetic-phonological resources; the prosodic and suprasegmentalvocal display: Resources from the realms of prosody and voice quality; visual or "multimodal" resources from the realms of body posture and its changes, head movements, gaze, and hand movements and gestures. It is shown that the display of affectivity is organized in orderly ways in sequences of storytelling in conversation. I reconstruct (a) how verbal, vocal and visual cues are deployed in co-occurrence in order to make affectivity in general and specific affects in particular interpretable for the recipient and (b) how in turn the recipient responds and takes up the displayed affect. As a result, affectivity is shown to be managed by teller and recipient in storytelling sequences in conversation, involving both the reporting of affects from the story world as well as the negotiation of in-situ affects in the here-and-now of the storytelling situation.}, language = {en} } @article{Selting2012, author = {Selting, Margret}, title = {Complaint stories and subsequent complaint stories with affect displays}, series = {Journal of pragmatics : an interdisciplinary journal of language studies}, volume = {44}, journal = {Journal of pragmatics : an interdisciplinary journal of language studies}, number = {4}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0378-2166}, doi = {10.1016/j.pragma.2012.01.005}, pages = {387 -- 415}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The paper investigates cases in which the recipients' affiliation with the speaker's affect in telling a complaint story is not (or not only) expressed through assessments or shorter comments or response cries but (also) through tellings of a complaint story of their own.
