TY - GEN A1 - Küttner, Uwe-Alexander T1 - At the intersection of stance-management and repair BT - Meta-pragmatic claims as a practice for disarming disaffiliative responses T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Philosophische Reihe N2 - This article offers an in-depth analysis of one particular type of meta-talk. It looks at how speakers use the meta-pragmatic claim to have previously communicated ('said' or 'meant') the same as, or the equivalent of, what their interlocutor just said. Through detailed sequential analyses, it is shown that this claim is frequently used as a practice for disarming disaffiliative responses and thus to manage (and often resolve) incipient disagreement. Besides unpacking the precise mechanisms underlying this practice, the paper also takes stock of the various (and partly variable) lexico-morpho-syntactic, prosodic and bodily-visual elements of conduct that recurrently enter into its composition. Since the practice essentially rests on the speaker’s insinuation of having been misunderstood by their co-participant, its relationship to the organization of repair will also be discussed. It is argued that the practice operates precisely at the intersection of stance-management (agreement/disagreement) and repair, and that it exhibits features which reflect this intersectional character. Data are in English. N2 - Dieser Beitrag widmet sich der Verwendung eines spezifischen Typs meta-sprachlicher Äußerungen. Er untersucht wie SprecherInnen des Englischen meta-pragmatische Behauptungen, zuvor das „Gleiche" kommuniziert (‚gesagt' oder ‚gemeint') zu haben wie ihr Gesprächspartner, verwenden. Mit Hilfe detaillierter sequenzieller Analysen wird gezeigt, dass diese Behauptungen oft verwendet werden, um disaffiliative Erwiderungen zu entkräften und somit aufkeimende Meinungsverschiedenheiten aufzulösen. Neben der Beschreibung der Mechanismen, die dieser Praktik zu Grunde liegen, werden die verschiedenen verbalen, para- und non-verbalen Ressourcen, die bei der Verwendung dieser Praktik (teils variabel) zum Einsatz ge-bracht werden, inventarisiert. Abschließend wird das Verhältnis dieser Praktik zu anderen Gesprächspraktiken diskutiert. Da sie grundlegend darauf fußt, dass ein Missverständnis auf Seiten des Gegenübers insinuiert wird, kann sie an der Schnittstelle von Praktiken zum Management von Einstellungen bzw. Haltungen und Reparaturen verortet werden.

To this end, it systematically reconsiders the conversational practice of using the lexico-syntactic format oh that’s right to implicitly claim “just-now” recollection of something previously known, but momentarily confused or forgotten. The analyses reveal that this practice typically occurs as part of a larger sequential pattern that the participants orient to and which serves as a procedure for dealing with, and generating an account for, one participant’s production of an inapposite action. As will be shown, the instantiation and progressive realization of this sequential procedure requires local inferential work from the participants. While some facets of this inferential work appear to be shaped by the particular context of the ongoing interaction, others are integral to the workings of the sequence as such. Moreover, the analyses suggest that participants’ understanding of oh that’s right as embodying an implicit memory claim rests on an inference which is based on a kind of semanticpragmatic compositionality. The paper thus illustrates how inferences in conversational interaction can be systematically studied and points to the merits of combining an interactional and a linguistic perspective.

The analyses are undertaken according to the conversation analytic approach. Furthermore, there is an quantitative analysis of the repair development over time.

It is conducted in the methodological frameworks of Conversation Analysis and Interactional Linguistics – two approaches that consider the interactional aspect of humans talking with each other to be a crucial starting point for its analysis. In doing so, we will (1) lay out the background of this special issue (what is problematic about “chunking” talk-in-interaction, the characteristics of the methodological approach chosen by the contributors, the cesura model), (2) highlight what can be gained from such a revised understanding of “chunking” in talk-in-interaction by referring to previous work with this model as well as the findings of the contributions to this special issue, and (3) indicate further directions such work could take starting from papers in this special issue. We hope to induce a fruitful exchange on the phenomena discussed, across methodological divides.
