Descriere

The volume focuses on discourse-pragmatic studies on evidentiality, epistemic modality, and on deontic modality. It presents studies on the functions and discourse-pragmatic variation of evidential and modal expressions, applying corpus-based methodologies and addressing cross-linguistic issues in several European languages.
