The Romanistische Arbeitshefte (Romance Studies Workbooks), edited by Georgia Veldre-Gerner and Volker Noll since 2004, have been constant and reliable companions for studentsof Romance Studies for over forty years. In their conception, they are designed as a reflection of the present state of research with an orientation towards application andthespecificneeds and difficulties of students. Thus they provide a reliable instrument for getting to grips with various areas of Romance linguistic studies and encourage students to utilise their newly-acquired knowledge with integrated exercises.

This book focuses on the use of example markers in English and in German in terms of linguistics (syntax, semantics, pragmatics, information and text structure, intonation) but also integrates issues of rhetoric, philosophy and argumentation theory. This leads to the distinction of three uses: exemplification, selection, and argumentation.
