General References on Discourse Markers

Below are general references on discourse markers, mostly written in English, that deal with major issues but not with specific details of particular discourse markers (DMs). I have included work that uses the labels of discourse connective, discourse relation, cue phrases, pragmatic markers, pragmatic particles, discourse particles, etc., but I have excluded references to focus or modal particles. Note: I have not read all of the articles so there may be some that were chosen because of their title but are not relevant.
