Written performance operating units: Linguistic and behavioral markers
Résumé
The aim of this special issue of Journal of Writing Research, “Written performance operating units: Linguistic and behavioral markers”, is to help unravel the rules and layout regularities that structure language flow in a formally and semantically valid text, and the combinatorial strategies used by writers in various contexts and discourse genres. For example…
— What types of units constitute the linguistic material for writing and rewriting?
— What linguistic categories better qualify for grasping this material, or do we need instead to construct/craft new categories?
— How do deleted and embedded sequences interact with production bursts through the textualization process?
— Can we identify projection or priming relations, observe routine sequences/combinations of events or contents, check the regular segmentation of written performance units?
Answering these and other related questions is crucial for a better understanding of the textualization process, since texts as a product constitute the result of processes that work out written performance operating units.
