What Part Are You Talking about? A Study of How Vague Expressions with Pubun (“Part”) Enhance Intersubjectivity in Korean Political Discourse
This study explores indexical meanings and pragmatic functions of the Korean noun pubun (“part”), especially when it is used as a bound noun to construct demonstrative pronoun structures. From a perspective of indexicality, our analysis shows that a major function of pubun is to avoid interpersonal conflicts by making it possible to construct and negotiate the meaning of what is being referred to. We also present how pubun functions contextually …
The Musical Language of Italian Opera, 1813–1859 , by William Rothstein
Despite its hefty size and far-reaching title, William Rothstein’s The Musical Language of Italian Opera, 1813–1859 does not, as the author himself admits, “set forth a Theory of Opera” (p. 549). Readers will not find among the book’s nearly 600 pages a comprehensive analysis of Ottocento opera’s vocal gestures, schematic lexicon, recitative syntax, textural constructions, topical discourse, or other matters that such a theory would require. Inst…
On Meter and the Social Dynamics of Cueing in Bill Monroe’s “Muleskinner Blues”
“Muleskinner Blues,” the signature song of bluegrass patriarch Bill Monroe, is at once central to the bluegrass canon and yet metrically enigmatic, featuring a flexible timing structure that fluctuated wildly between performances. This article engages in a longitudinal study of 165 performances of “Muleskinner Blues” across Bill Monroe’s career to explore how the musicians that rotated through his band, the Blue Grass Boys, cognitively grappled w…
Intersubjectivity and Shared Dynamic Structure in Narrative Imaginings to Music
This paper digests a recent body of empirical work on narrative imaginings to music, bringing them into dialogue with existing theoretical frameworks. By examining the stories imagined at three geographic locations using various methods, these studies present converging evidence that intuitive imaginings to music can be strikingly similar across individuals, but only when they share a cultural background. The intersubjectivity of these imaginings…
Goading as a social action
This paper addresses particular social actions present in a data set of short message emails where interactants use potentially impolite strategies frequently. The particular social action under analysis here is that of goading, a term coined to describe targeted banter (banter directed toward a ratified participant in interaction). However, evaluations of impoliteness are not always shared across participants in these goading sequences, as follo…
