Download or read book Metadiscourse written by Ken Hyland and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First released in 2005, Ken Hyland's Metadiscourse has become a canonical account of how language is used in written communication. 'Metadiscourse' is defined as the ways that writers reflect on their texts to refer to themselves, their readers or the text itself. It is a key resource in language as it allows the writer to engage with readers in familiar and expected ways and as such it is an important tool for students of academic writing in both the L1 and L2 context. This book achieves for main goals: - to provide an accessible introduction to metadiscourse, discussing its role and importance in written communication and reviewing current thinking on the topic - to explore examples of metadiscourse in a range of texts from business, academic, journalistic, and student writing - to offer a new theory of metadiscourse - to show the relevance of this theory to students, academics and language teachers The book shows how writers use the devices of metadiscourse to adjust the level of personality in their texts, to offer a representation of themselves and their arguments. It shows how these tools help the reader organise, interpret and evaluate the information presented in the text. Knowing how to identify metadiscourse as a reader is a key skill to be learnt by students of discourse analysis and this book makes this a central goal.

Book excerpt: This book addresses an important aspect of how language is used in written communication: the ways that writers reflect on their texts to refer to themselves, their readers or the text itself. This is known as METADISCOURSE. Metadiscourse is a key resource in language, as it allows the writer to engage with readers in familiar and expected ways. Writers use the devices of metadiscourse to adjust the level of personality in their texts, to offer a representation of themselves and their arguments. This helps the reader organise, interpret and evaluate the information presented in the text. Metadiscourse is therefore crucial to successful communication. Knowing how to identify metadiscourse as a reader is a key skill to be learnt by students of discourse analysis. Learning how to use metadiscourse in writing is an important tool for students of academic writing in both the L1 and L2 context. This book has four main purposes: - to provide an accessible introduction to metadiscourse, discussing its role and importance in written communication and reviewing current thinking on the topic. - to explore examples of metadiscourse in a range of texts from business, academic, journalistic, and student writing - to offer a new theory of metadiscourse - to show the relevance of this theory to students, academics and language teachers.
Book Synopsis Metadiscourse in L1 and L2 English by : Annelie Ädel
Download or read book Metadiscourse in L1 and L2 English written by Annelie Ädel and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2006-09-12 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pervasive phenomenon of metadiscourse – commentary on the ongoing discourse – is beginning to take its rightful place among the major topics of discourse studies. This book makes simultaneous contributions to the theory of metadiscourse, corpus-based methods of studying such phenomena, and our knowledge of metadiscourse use in written English. After comprehensively reviewing previous research, it introduces a more rigorous and empirical approach to metadiscourse studies. Ädel presents a new model of metadiscourse based on Jakobson’s functions of language, and other conceptual tools, including explicit features for defining metadiscourse, a taxonomy of the functions it serves, and maps of the boundaries between it and related phenomena. A large-scale study of writing by L1 and L2 university students is presented, in which the L2 speakers’ overuse of metadiscourse strongly marks them as lacking in communicative competence. This work is of interest both to linguists and to educators concerned with writing in English.
Book Synopsis Metadiscourse in Digital Communication by : Larissa D'Angelo
Download or read book Metadiscourse in Digital Communication written by Larissa D'Angelo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-15 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, a solid and emerging group of international researchers contributes to the theory of metadiscourse and to our understanding of the role metadiscourse and related ‘meta’ phenomena may play in digital forms of communication. Providing examples of new research methods and approaches, the authors investigate progressively hybridized academic and non-academic genres that have migrated from analogue to digital format. The book offers valuable insights on how digital communication has changed today’s communication environments and provides examples of research methods needed to capture that change. This volume will be appreciated by scholars and graduate students interested in linguistics, corpus linguistics and metadiscourse.
Book Synopsis Writer-reader Interaction by Metadiscourse Features by : Mehrdad Vasheghani Farahani
Download or read book Writer-reader Interaction by Metadiscourse Features written by Mehrdad Vasheghani Farahani and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2022-09-23 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature of interaction between authors and readers of written texts varies from language to language. This is particularly evident in specialized texts and their translations. Mehrdad Vasheghani Farahani unveils the distributional pattern of metadiscourse features as well as the writer-reader interaction in translations of legal and political texts in an English-Persian context. Using a corpus-based methodology and resorting to parallel and reference corpora, he explores systematically the use of metadiscourse features and their distribution in original texts and in translations in English and Persian. In addition, parallel concordance lines are used to examine the way writer-reader interaction is constructed and guided in translation and non-translation language in English and Persian.
Book Synopsis New Trends on Metadiscourse by : Begoña Bellés-Fortuño
Download or read book New Trends on Metadiscourse written by Begoña Bellés-Fortuño and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-22 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book gives an updated overview of methods of analysis of academic and non-academic genres in a digital era. The advent of digital and social media has deeply transformed academic and non-academic communication practices in the past two decades. The linguistic landscape is now a multilayered one; multicultural issues and cross-linguistic aspects are addressed in a way to understand how linguistically and culturally diverse identities try to find pathways. The communicative immediacy of digital media and the spectrum of genres/hybridized forms now available has inevitably influenced the way we communicate and the way we create meaning-making in a multimodal environment. The book contains nine chapters divided into two main sections corresponding to academic and non-academic texts where written, spoken and digital genres are examined from different perspectives. Cross-linguistic studies, multilingual approaches or disciplinary variations are analyzed in detail. This book provides and up-to-date and innovative view of Metadiscourse research and develops new research methodologies, drawing on visual research methods and combinations of qualitative and quantitative approaches from fields including Discourse Analysis, Corpus Linguistics, and Genre Analysis.

Book Synopsis Talking Donald Trump by : Jennifer Sclafani
Download or read book Talking Donald Trump written by Jennifer Sclafani and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Talking Donald Trump examines the language of Donald Trump’s presidential campaign from the perspective of sociocultural linguistics. This book offers an insight into the many stages of Trump’s political career, from his initial campaign for the Republican nomination, up to his presidency. Drawing from speeches, debates, and interviews, as well as parodies and public reactions to his language, Sclafani explores how Trump’s language has produced such polarized reactions among the electorate. In analysing the linguistic construction of Donald Trump’s political identity, Sclafani’s incisive study sheds light on the discursive construction of political identity and the conflicting language ideologies associated with the discourse of leadership in modern US society. Talking Donald Trump provides a crucial contemporary example of the interaction between sociolinguistics and political science, and is key reading for advanced students and researchers in the fields of sociolinguistics, language and politics, communication studies and rhetoric.

Book Synopsis Teacher Professional Development for the Integration of Content and Language in Higher Education by : Ma Noelia Ruiz-Madrid
Download or read book Teacher Professional Development for the Integration of Content and Language in Higher Education written by Ma Noelia Ruiz-Madrid and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses heated issues in Integrated Content and Language in Higher Education (ICLHE) teacher training with specific emphasis on case studies that will contribute to inform future ICLHE teacher training research and practice. One of the most significant phenomena concerning language in higher education in modern time has been the rise of content subjects taught in an additional language, English being the chosen language in most of the cases. The implementation and teaching of Integrated Content and Language in Higher Education (ICLHE) or English as Medium of Instruction (EMI) is a multifaceted, dynamic process that cannot be considered in isolation. Indeed, there are a multitude of interrelated factors that pivot on situating the learner in the centre of the learning process and which directly shape ICLHE teacher training. This is why training lecturers to teach learners in an additional language in Higher Education has been considered a challenge for the profession as numerous publications demonstrate. This book brings together the innovative work of different researchers around the world on how universities, researchers and practitioners are facing and developing Integrating Content and Language in Higher Education (ICHLE) teacher training. All in all, the different contributions reflect different issues that play a fundamental role in the design of effective ICLHE professional development and provide data and reflections that will hopefully contribute to inform future ICLHE teacher training programmes. Teacher Professional Development for the Integration of Content and Language in Higher Education will be an important resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of Education and Teacher Training Research and Practice. The chapters included in this book were originally published as a special issue of Innovation in Language Learning and Teaching.

Book Synopsis Talking with Readers by : Avon Crismore
Download or read book Talking with Readers written by Avon Crismore and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1989 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about metadiscourse, the rhetorical acts used by authors as they talk with readers in order to guide rather than inform them and build solidarity. Metadiscourse in use is illustrated by a variety of written texts spanning the period from 500 B.C. to the present. Perspectives from rhetoric, speech communication, linguistics, literature, philosophy, and psychology are used to begin building a theory of metadiscourse. The theory is tested with two empirical studies having practical classroom applications: a descriptive analysis of metadiscourse use in social studies school and non-school texts and an experimental study of the effects of metadiscourse on students' learning and attitudes.
