Cyclic phonology–syntax-interaction : movement to first position in German
This paper investigates the nature of the attraction of XPs to clauseinitial position in German (and other languages). It argues that there are two different types of preposing. First, an XP can move when it is attracted by an EPP-like feature of Comp. Comp can, however, also attract elements that bear the formal marker of some semantic or pragmatic (information theoretic) function. This second type of movement is driven by the attraction of a formal property of the moved element. It has often been misanalysed as “operator” movement in the past

The discourse function of inverse voice: An experimental study in Teribe (Chibchan)
Quesada JD, Skopeteas S. The discourse function of inverse voice: An experimental study in Teribe (Chibchan). Journal of Pragmatics. 2010;42(9):2579-2600.It has been argued that the use of inverse voice in languages with pragmatic inversion depends on the discourse status of the referents: this voice occurs when the patient outranks the agent in topicality. In our article, we present empirical evidence from Teribe, a Chibchan language of Panama and Costa Rica and we examine the interaction between inverse voice and information structure. We report the results of three production experiments which show that there is a strong correlation but not a categorical association between inverse voice and particular information structural properties. On this empirical basis, we claim that the occurrence of inverse voice in discourse may be accounted for in terms of discourse-oriented preferences concerning the linear order and does not require the assumption that discrete pragmatic properties such as topic or focus are inherent part of the construction at issue
Entrevista a Carlos Mesa Gisbert
El profesor Carlos Mesa Gisbert, escritor, periodista y Presidente de Bolivia entre 2003 y 2005, visitó el Instituto de Iberoamérica de la Universidad de Salamanca el pasado 28 de febrero. Juan Ramos, estudiante de doctorado del Instituto, aprovechó este acontecimiento para realizarle una entrevista en USAL TV y preguntarle sobre la actualidad en su país. Entre otros temas, habló de su visión acerca de la nueva Constitución, del discurso indigenista del Presidente Evo Morales, de la integraci..

“Aproximaciones a la oralidad en el texto audiovisual”
Colloquial language, as defined by Beinhauer (1973: 9), is “speech such as springs natu-rally and spontaneously in daily conversation”. In the case of a screenplay –that is, a text writ-ten to be spoken (Chaume 2004) –, we are faced with the need to provide a credible representation of living conver-sational language. This essay focuses on the characteristics of oral discourse in the language of fiction on the basis of a corpus of excerpts from six Spanish films. Its aim is to identify the most important features of oral language in the audiovisual text. The essay’s working hypothesis will be to verify whether the selected samples reflect the features of so-called ‘prototypical oral discourse’ (Briz 1995). The samples are taken from the following films by Almodóvar: What Have I Done to Deserve This? (1984); Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown (1988), The Flower of My Secret (1995), Talk to Her (2002), Volver (2006) and Broken Em-braces (2009). This director was chosen in view of the function of the language used by his char-acters, characterized by an informal tone in which colloqui-al elements are theoretically prevalent
Cooperative cooling in a one-dimensional chain of optically bound cold atoms
We discuss theoretically the optical binding of one-dimensional chains of cold atoms shone by a transversepump, where particles self-organize to a distance close to an optical wavelength. As the number of particlesis increased, the trapping potential increases logarithmically as the contributions from all atoms add upconstructively. We identify a cooperative cooling mechanism, due to the mutual exchange of photons betweenatoms, which can beat the spontaneous emission for chains that are long enough. Surprisingly, the cooling isoptimal very close to the resonance. This peculiar cooling mechanism thus gives new insights into the cooperativephysics of low-dimensional cold atom systems
