Discourse Markers “This book is an extremely valuable contribution to the study of discourse markers from an enunciative perspective. It begins at the beginning, with a thorough, yet accessible, introduction to the Theory of Enunciative and Predicative Operations. It then proceeds through a comprehensive review of previous works to a corpus-based study of discourse markers in English. I highly recommend this book for any student or advanced researcher looking for a solid, consistent theoretical model to capture the inherent variability of discourse markers.” —Guillaume Desagulier, Université Paris Nanterre, France “This book will most certainly create a greater awareness and appreciation of Culioli’s Theory of Enunciative and Predicative Operations as a framework for modeling natural language activity. The advantages of the method are illustrated by the insightful analysis of the discourse markers ‘anyway’, ‘in fact’ and ‘indeed’ and ‘I think’.” —Karin Aijmer, University of Gothenburg, Sweden
