Dependance Et Integration Syntaxique - Subordination, Coordination, Connexion

This volume is the fruit of an international colloquium organized at Bordeaux in 1994. The papers stem from some of the most renowned experts on the syntax of French and other languages, and centre around the central problem of the organisation of utterances between dependency relations and integration into syntactic units. The discussion faithfully mirrors the latest research developments in the syntax, semantics and pragmatics of extended utterances and connectors. It is thus of interest not only to linguistics and grammar specialists but also to scholars working in the field of discourse analysis and argumentation.
