The posi tion advertised is for a subproject centered on th e linguistic questions raised by the project: How does a reader even know that a given text is ficti on? Are there linguistic clues an author can leave to mark a text is to be interpreted as an imagina tion update? The goal is to give a formal semantic analysis of putatie fiction markers (e.g. free in direct discourse), building on the semantic machin ery developed in the other subprojects, and engagi ng with existing work in both formal/cognitive lin guistics and literary studies/narratology.
