Dialogue, Rationality, Formalism

Rebuschi, M., Batt, M., Heinzmann, G., Musiol, M., & Trognon, A. (Eds). (2014). Dialogue: linguistics, Rationality, Formalism. Interdisciplinaryy works in logic, epistemology, psychology and linguistics. NY: Springer

This book presents comparisons of recent accounts in the formalization of natural language (dynamic logics and formal semantics) with informal conceptions of interaction (dialogue, natural logic, and attribution of rationality) that have been developed in both psychology and epistemology. There are four parts which explore historical and systemactic studies; the formalisation of context in epistamology; the formalization of reasoning in interactive contexts in psychology; the formalization of pathological conversation. Part one discusses the Erlangen School, which proposed a logical analysis of science as well as an operational reconstruction of psychological concepts (...). Le second focus is on formal epistemology, where there has recently been a vigorous contribution from experts in epistemic and doxatic logics and an attempt to account for a more realistic, cognitively plausible conception of knowledge. The third part of this book examines the meeting point between logic and the human and social sciences and the fourth part focuses on research at the intersecton between linguistics and psychhology.

Logical Properties of Dialogue

A. Trognon, M. Batt, J. Caelen, D. Vernant (Dirs.)(2011). Logical Properties of Dialogue. Nancy : PUN

A little more than twenty-five years ago, Douglas Walton (1985) prefaced a special issue of the journal Synthese on new directions in dialogue logic, with this provocative question: "But is there a logic of dialogue?" (...). For Walton, these developments were «already leading towards a reversal of the orientation of logic». But this reversal will appear more difficult and chaotic than Walton had anticipated it. In a second special issue of the same journal, Synthese, devoted to dialogue logic published 15 years after the 1985 issue, Rahman and Rucker (2001) said (...) »quite recently it has become apparent that there is a gradually increasing interest in the study of dialogical logic from different research areas. (...). A new demand for a diversity of logical systems which could serve various applications has arisen from artificial intelligence, computer science and linguistics, as well as from legal reasoning, philosophy and psychology. This demand has caused extensive research in different new and old logical systems.» (ibid: 1-2). They conclude that »the question of how a common general frame for studying most of these logics could be formulated was now of particular importance.» Would not it anything be spent of fundamental in the logic of the dialogue between 1985 and 2001? And if significant progress was carried out, what tasks do they remain to make to approach the synthesis for which Krabbe hoped in its article in 1985? Such is the theme of this book to which contributed the best French specialists of the dialogue.

Etude d'un jeu de dialogue professionnel

M. Batt, A. Trognon. Etude d'un jeu de dialogue professionnel. Le conseil en medecine predictive. Nancy: PUN-Editions universitaires de Lorraine

Cet ouvrage reunit un ensemble d'etudes realisees en consultation genetique. Il couvre deux consultations predictives: la consultation pour le test predictif de la maladie de Huntington et la consultation d'oncogenetique pour le test presymptomatique du cancer du sein et de l'ovaire. Articule en trois parties, ce livre expose le contexte legislatif, ethique et deontologique de la consultation, puis il presente plusieurs etudes empririques orientees vers les phenomenes langagiers avant de se consacrer a l'etude d'un cas clinique qui s'apparente a une "volonte active d'aveuglement". L'exemple illustre que minimiser les dangers psychologiques de l'annonce du diagnostic presymptomatique, revient a gerer en consultation predictive la subtilite de mecanismes discursifs tres fins. Les auteurs ont souhaite rendre cet ouvrage accessible au plus grand nombre en proposant une approche a differents niveaux. Une premiere lecture ne requiert aucune connaissance particuliere et permet au lecteur interesse par les consultations predictives d'aborder ce texte sans tenir compte des analyses techniques qui y sont effectuees (...). Au lecteur averti, medecin, psychologue, ou etudiant en sciences humaines, ce livre apportera une reflexion sur une pratique professionnelle connue ou a decouvrir. Cet ouvrage s'adresse egalement a un public scientifique specialise en logique contemporraine ou en linguistique.
