  • Rhetorical questions and epistemic stance in an Italian Facebook corpus during the Covid-19 pandemic

    Open AccessIlaria Riccioni, Andrzej Zuczkowski et al.ARTICLEOpen Linguistics2025

    This study aims to investigate rhetorical questions (RQs) from the perspective of epistemic stance. The quantitative and qualitative analysis was conducted on a corpus consisting of a set of comments extracted from the Facebook page of a major Italian newspaper ( Il Corriere della Sera ) regarding the news of the suspension of the AstraZeneca vaccine in March 2021. The theoretical framework for analysing the comments containing RQs was the KUB (K…

  • The Italian Epistemic Disclaimer Non so [I Don't Know] in a Corpus of Gynaecological Interactions

    Open AccessRamona Bongelli, Andrzej Zuczkowski et al.ARTICLELanguages2023Referencias: 61

    Viewing conversations from an epistemic perspective involves analysing how participants navigate their knowledge, handle uncertainty, and address their lack of knowledge. This article focuses on the use of epistemic disclaimers, i.e., linguistic expressions that speakers employ to indicate uncertainty or lack of knowledge, in a collection of Italian gynaecological conversations throughout pregnancy. Specifically, the study examines the occurrence…

  • Self-mention and uncertain communication in the British Medical Journal (1840–2007)

    Open AccessIlaria Riccioni, Ramona Bongelli et al.ARTICLEOpen Linguistics2021

    The communication of a scientific finding as certain or uncertain largely determines whether that information will be translated into practice. In this study, a corpus of 80 articles published in the British Medical Journal for over 167 years (1840–2007) is analysed by focusing on three categories of uncertainty markers, which explicitly reveal a writer’s subjectivity: (1) I/we epistemic verbs; (2) I/we modal verbs; and (3) epistemic non-verbs co…

  • Questions and epistemic stance

    Open AccessRamona Bongelli, Ilaria Riccioni et al.ARTICLEAmpersand2018

    Through the analysis of presuppositions, question design, social action and preference organisation in short fragments of Italian question-answer sequences, this paper aims to show that (1) wh-questions, on the one hand, and alternative and polar questions (i.e., polar interrogatives, tag and declarative questions), on the other, come from two different epistemic positions: unknowing and uncertain, respectively; (2) alternative and polar question…

  • Ignorance-unmasking questions in the Royal-Sarkozy presidential debate

    Open AccessLaura Vincze, Ramona Bongelli et al.ARTICLEDiscourse Studies2016Citada por: 3Referencias: 37

    The article presents an analysis of the ways in which knowledge is displayed, contested and renegotiated in the 2007 French presidential debate between Ségolène Royal and Nicolas Sarkozy. Knowledge displays can be achieved through a series of ‘neutral’ resources, such as informing, explanation or comment, or through face-damaging resources, such as questioning an unknowledgeable interlocutor to prove his inferior epistemic status (K−) and boost o…

  • Knowing, Unknowing, Believing stances and characters’ dialogic identities in the Harry Potter books

    Laura Dorigato, Gill Philip et al.ARTICLELanguage and Dialogue2015

    In a previous paper (Philip et al. 2013) we presented the analysis of the main characters’ identities, as they emerge from the dialogues in Chapter 10 of the seventh book of the Harry Potter series, in relation to their Knowing, Unknowing, and Believing epistemic stances. The aim of the present study is to expand this analysis to all seven books of the same saga, in particular focusing on how Harry and Lord Voldemort negotiate, construct, and dev…

  • Humor understanding and knowledge

    Carla Canestrari, Alberto Dionigi et al.ARTICLELanguage and Dialogue2014

    According to the cognitive approach to humour, understanding of humorous texts implies a moment of surprise, even confusion of thought, produced by the recognition of an incongruity, defined as an incoherent piece of the text. The problem solving activity involved in humor understanding aims at resolving the incongruity. Our goal is to contribute to better define the surprise experience by describing its epistemic and evidential aspects. The test…

  • Negotiating narrative

    Gill Philip, Ramona Bongelli et al.ARTICLELanguage and Dialogue2013

    Within the framework of KUB Theory (Bongelli and Zuczkowski 2008, Zuczkowski et al. 2011), information communicated verbally can ultimately be reduced to one of three categories: what the speaker knows (Known), what the speaker does not know (Unknown) and what the speaker believes (Believed). Dialogic communication can be considered as an exchange of information originating in one of these categories and directed towards another. The present stud…
