Abstract

"Introducing Dialogue Games": Formal and computational approaches to dialogue are dealt with from the perspective of the unifying notion of a dialogue game. Day 1 is dedicated to introducing this notion, providing some historical background and methodological assumptions. The theme of days 2 and 3 is public commitment in dialogue as an alternative to private intentions and beliefs. On days 4 and 5, the focus is shifted to the structures (such as adjacency pairs and insertion sequences) that emerge when two or more autonomous interlocutors engage in a dialogue game. Basic knowledge of propositional and predicate logic is required to follow this tutorial. O mesmo mini-curso será ministrado na "19th European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information", no Trinity College, em Dublin, Ireland, de 6 a 17 de agosto de 2007. (AU)
