Hardcover. Zustand: New. Discourse Anaphora Resolution in Panjabi: A Centering Theory-Based Approach provides an engaging and accessible introduction to anaphora studies in Punjabi, with special reference to the ILCI corpora. It introduces readers to the linguistics of anaphora by exploring its relationship with discourse structure and corpora, and demonstrates how anaphora functions as a crucial mechanism for maintaining consistency and coherence in natural language. The book pragmatically addresses reference choice (i.e., anaphors) in Punjabi by examining implicature within the Neo-Gricean approach, with comparative insights drawn from Chinese anaphora studies. It also critically introduces the well-known Centering Theory as a computational framework for understanding anaphors at the discourse level. Key features include: A comprehensive introduction to anaphors at the discourse level Broad coverage of linguistic expressions, discourse coherence, discourse centers, discourse focus, and corpus-related concerns Consideration of selected cases of Chinese anaphora while discussing the Neo-Gricean approach in Punjabi A formal link between linguistic frameworks and computational models for solving human-machine interaction problems in NLP, with a special focus on anaphora resolution This book is an indispensable resource for beginners and researchers interested in anaphora and discourse anaphora studies.…
