Focus and dialogue games

pp. 295-333

The present paper, long as it is, is an excerpt of a monograph manuscript entitled Dialogue Games — A Game-Theoretical Approach to Text Linguistics. As the name indicates, the more comprehensive work develops the intonational ideas presented here in the wider perspective of a game-theoretical theory of textual concepts (such as theme, rheme, topic, old vs. new information, textual connectedness)*.
