I won't be able to attend the colloquium but I think this is an interesting
topic and would like to wiegh-in.
I have come to see the printed page as analogous to musical score--that the
line breaks and punctuation in particular are designations of places where a
reader is to pause, to take a breath, etc. I structure my works in this way
for the reader as well as for myself to remind myself of how I am to read
the piece aloud.
There are other methods to indicate places where emphasis is to be
placed--placing a word alone. Capitalizing it. Placing characters such a
little stars (*) around it to indicate some special emphasis/or accent is
intended.
