Details:
Lecture series on Action Formation and Action Ascription
The talks in this series address one of the main questions in the social sciences, i.e. ”how people grasp the subjective meanings of each others’ actions” (Heritage, 1984: 57; Weber 1922/1978; Parsons 1937; Garfinkel 1967; Goffman 1971; Schütz/Luckmann 1973). Previous conversation analytic research on actions in social interaction has explored action formation, i.e. which contextual factors are relevant for choosing a specific format for doing requesting, questioning, assessing, apologizing etc. Only in the last decade scholars have turned their attention to action ascription as a fundamental problem for participants (Heritage 2012a,b; Levinson 2013; Fox/Heinemann 2017; Rossi 2018; Deppermann/Haugh in press). This series of talks will bring new insights into what factors contribute to the situated understanding of an action. They will deliver methodological and theoretical insights on action formation and ascription in social interaction in different languages.
The Leibniz-Institute for the German Language (IDS Mannheim) invites you to attend a free international lecture series on Action Formation and Action Ascription. Lectures will be taking place between June 21 and October 11, 2021 via zoom.
