Produktbeschreibung
This book provides an in-depth analysis of the
generic integrity of English newspaper editorials. It
applies a Hallidayian SFL (Systemic Functional
Linguistics) framework of text analysis to an array
of native and non-native English editorials. It
catalogs their micro-textual index (Chain Interaction
analysis) and uncovers their macro-rhetorical
skeleton (Generic Structure Potential analysis).
Finally, it offers a qualitative and quantitative
cross-cultural comparison to highlight textual
variation from one culture to another. The findings,
likely to be of interest to those involved in
education, applied linguistics, and the media, cast
light on the validity of the Generic Structure
Potential (GSP) analysis in the context of
Contrastive Rhetoric (CR) research, relate the
significance of Chain Interaction (CI) analysis to
genre theory, and illustrate their far-reaching
implications for both genre pedagogy, in general, and
the theory and practice of Systemic Functional
Linguistics (SFL), in particular.
