Abstract:
This paper is organized as follows. First, in Section 1, an outline is given of the theory of information packaging|i.e., the structuring of propositional content in function of the speaker's assumptions about the hearer's information state|as it is presented by Vallduv (1992, 1993, 1994), who identies the informational primitives focus and ground , link and tail , adapted from the traditional pragmatic focus/ground and topic/comment approaches, and who concludes|as is explained in Section 2|that the exploitation of information states of hearers by the information-packaging strategies of speakers reveals that these states have at least the internal structure of a system of le cards along the lines of Heim (1982, 1983): links, which correspond to what are traditionally known as topics and which are typically marked by L+H* pitch accents in English, say where|on which le card|the focal information goes, and tails indicate how it ts there. This conclusion is challenged in Section 3, where it is argued that it begs the question. If le card systems are assumed, then the information-packaging strategies do seem to contribute to ecient information exchange|however, the question is whether this assumption itself is justied. Moreover, it is shown that the idea that links specify a locus of update in information states that are systems of le cards is problematic for various reasons. Therefore, Section 4 oers an alternative account in terms of the discourse representation structures of Discourse Representation Theory (see Kamp 1981, Kamp and Reyle 1993), which are ontologically less committed than the `dimensionally richer' le card systems, since discourse representation structures do not come with locations. The latter aspect raises the question what purpose links do s.
