  abstract: What happens in everyday dialogue? The authors revert to a rich prehistory to answer this question: Philipp Wegener in the late 19th and Karl Bühler in the first half of the 20th century in the German traditions of philology and psychology. Their work culminated in the concept empractical speech. This groundbreaking book opens up a new view of language use in settings in which participants are primarily involved not in speaking but in some non-linguistic activity and in which the need for speech arises only occasionally. Behold empractical speech, a genre unto itself with respect to conversation – an ubiquitous phenomenon of everyday life and the very setting of early language acquisition. The historical, theoretical, and empirical approaches of Dialogical Genres establish differences between empractical and conversational speech. The authors’ theoretical orientation is psychological. Their empirical methodology is quantitative and qualitative analysis of excerpts from feature films.

With supplementary and rich contemporary means it reconfigures our ways of viewing a whole dimension of the life of language and the speakers and listeners who animate it and are animated by it. O’Connell and Kowal have blended historical, theoretical, and e…
