Anthropology 2249F/G Lecture Notes - Lecture 7: Intersubjectivity, Joint Attention, Palliative Care
Document Summary
Key ideas, study of talk and interaction, thus there are at least 2 paticipants, can now be applied to text conversations as well, not just limited to conversation but any face to face interaction. Investigating how people coordinate their joint attention and intersubjectivity: how do you get people to jointly agree this is the type of conversation we"re having, creating this speech event together. If two people self selects then: could be an interruption where first speaker wasn"t done but someone self- selects anyway, current speaker may continue. If no one takes up the next turn or if there"s no resolution to the two people self-selecting then this happens: each time there"s a turn transition relevance place a new one might be used. Likely won"t use the same mechanism throughout: not always obvious, but it might be in an interview or something, practise. Institutional talk: how is it different from ordinary conversation, highly constrained.
