Synopsis

This two-volume work presents the entire corpus of lectures by a writer whose thought and method influenced a generation of linguists and sociologists. Volume one contains the lectures delivered at UCLA, from Fall 1964 through Spring 1968. They touch on a great variety of topics, but two key issues emerge, rules of conversational sequencing and membership categorization devices. It culminates in the extensive and formal explication of turn-taking delivered in Fall 1967. Volume two contains the lectures delivered at Univerity of California, Irvine from Fall 1968 through Spring 1972. As in Volume one, these lectures touch on a wide range of subjects, and the investigations of storytelling and conversational sequencing, begun in the earlier volume, continues. It culminates in the dissertation on adjacency pairs delivered in Spring 1972.

Quatrième de couverture

This project makes available for the first time the entire corpus of lectures by a writer whose thought and method influenced a generation of sociologists and sociolinguists.

Originally published as two volumes, this special comprehensive single–volume edition contains the complete lectures, beginning with the lectures delivered at UCLA, from Fall 1964 through Spring 1968. Sacks explores a great variety of topics, but two key issues emerge: rules of conversational sequencing, and membership categorization devices. The lectures culminate in the extensive and formal explication of turn–taking delivered in Fall 1967.

The second half contains the lectures delivered at UC Irvine from Fall 1968 through Spring 1972. Again, Sacks touches on a wide range of subjects, such as the poetics of ordinary talk, the integrative function of public tragedy, and pauses in the spelling out of a word. The central theme is storytelling in conversation, with an attendant focus on topic. The volume culminates in the elegant dissertation on adjacency pairs which Sacks delivered in Spring, 1972.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Volume I contains the lectures of Fall 1964 through Fall 1967, in which Sacks explores a great variety of topics, from suicide to children′s games to Medieval Hell as a nemonic device to pronouns and paradoxes. But two key issues emerge: rules of conversational sequencing – central to the articulation of interaction, and membership categorization devices – central to the social organization of knowledge. This volume culminates in the extensive and formal explication of turn–taking which Sacks delivered in Fall, 1967.
Volume II contains the lectures of Spring 1968 through Spring 1972. Again he touches on a wide range of subjects, such as the poetics of ordinary talk, the integrative function of public tragedy, and pauses in spelling out a word. He develops a major new theme: storytelling in converstion, with an attendant focus on topic. His investigation of conversational sequencing continues, and this volume culminates in the elegant dissertation on adjacency pairs which Sacks delivered in Spring, 1972.
