AUTHOR
SUMMARY
This work is a quantitative discourse study of referential devices in Yagua, a relatively unstudied language of the Amazon basin. Of particular interest are folktales in which the major participants are matched pairs, and which involve extensive use of direct speech. A major finding is that the indices of "Referential Distance" and "Persistence" quantify distinct functional domains.Payne, Thomas E. is the author of 'Twins Stories', published 1993 under ISBN 9780520097742 and ISBN 0520097742.
