Sample text

As the name suggests, propositional strategies interpret sentences and transfer them into a propositional representation. They are thus the counterpart to a parsing component. • Strategies of local coherence. Strategies of local coherence work out how adjacent propositions are linked semantically. The most important condition for coherence is that the propositions refer to coherent events in a possible world. To express this, utterances frequently have the same referent. Conjunctions indicate the relations, or they ensue from the sequence of the propositions.

The reality of discourse comprehension is, however, that there is a continuous feedback between understanding less complex and more complex units. 5 Understanding 33 will depend on the functional structure of the clause as a whole, both at the syntactic and at the semantic level. According to the concepts put forth in KINT83, during text comprehension a text base is constructed in the memory of the understander. , the semantic links between them. Only insofar as the text base represents the overall textual context has the reader understood the text.

Scripts state what we already know. They are essentially conservative and bound to normal events. The restaurant script, for instance, has no facilities to store a fiddler coming along, or to deal with a cook on strike or in love. In these events, however, no restaurant customer would fail to refer to a strike or person-in-Iove schema to understand what is going on. In contrast to scripts, humans tend to foreground the exceptional experiences in their memory. They flexibly construct sets of memory schemata that fit the situation, often by adapting schemata that rule a somewhat analogous case, for instance transferring experiences from an airline strike to a strike of the restaurant personnel.
