The Grammar of Expressivity - Oxford Studies in Theoretical Linguistics
Gutzmann, Daniel (Senior Lecturer in German Linguistics, Senior Lecturer in German Linguistics, University of Cologne)
This volume provides a detailed account of the syntax of expressive language. Based on case studies of expressive adjectives, intensifiers, and vocatives, it offers a new analysis of expressivity that bridges the gap between semantic and syntactic accounts, and shows that expressivity is a syntactic feature and not a purely semantic phenomenon.
