Overview

Contains most of the papers given at an international workshop at the University of Munster in May 1997. The text addresses questions of lexical semantics from the pragmatic perspective of a corpus-oriented approach as well as from the model-oriented perspective of sign theoretic linguistics. Within the corpus-oriented approach, the idea that single words can no longer be considered to be the lexical unit is discussed. Other models of contrastive lexical semantics are also covered: the two-level model; the structural model; a model of contrastive idiom analysis; and a computerlinguistic model.
