Iconicity and topic-focus sequentiality

Original language description

The article deals with the concept of the language iconicity of the information structure in a sentence. It aims to investigate the possibilities for word order to correspond to an increase in sentence informativeness. Theoretical assumptions about the dependency of language iconicity of the information structure on word order rules will be examined on the basis of an analysis and comparison of two parallel texts, the first of which is in a language with relatively free word order (Italian) and the other in a language with fixed word order (French). The aim of my approach is to explain the various possibilities of ranking the elements in an utterance in terms of iconicity in order to provide a semiotic understanding of language strategies.
