초록

This paper aims to explore referring expressions in naturally-occurring contemporary English and Korean news discourse. It also gives a comparative pragmatic account of the distribution of referring expressions that are used to refer to public figures, zeroing in on the paragraph order: the first mentions in the first three paragraphs. It is confirmed that there are two coreferential patterns in both languages: the general pattern both in English and Korean; the sequential pattern only in Korean. Meanwhile, it is verified that Ariel’s accessibility and its marking scale explain the former, while their applications to the latter do not hold water in terms of descriptive and explanatory adequacy. Instead, it is argued in four points: (1) different types and frequency of referring expressions by the paragraph order; (2) referential types vs. referential properties; (3) language and genre difference; (4) linguistic and sociocultural context.

Abstract

This paper aims to explore referring expressions in naturally-occurring contemporary English and Korean news discourse. It also gives a comparative pragmatic account of the distribution of referring expressions that are used to refer to public figures, zeroing in on the paragraph order: the first mentions in the first three paragraphs. It is confirmed that there are two coreferential patterns in both languages: the general pattern both in English and Korean; the sequential pattern only in Korean. Meanwhile, it is verified that Ariel’s accessibility and its marking scale explain the former, while their applications to the latter do not hold water in terms of descriptive and explanatory adequacy. Instead, it is argued in four points: (1) different types and frequency of referring expressions by the paragraph order; (2) referential types vs. referential properties; (3) language and genre difference; (4) linguistic and sociocultural context.
