Fries --Defining and relating text segments /Carmel Cloran.The ten papers in this volume focus on Subject and Theme. Theme began its life as a semantic notion in the work of Vilém Mathesius, while Subject has traditionally been seen as just a syntactic entity. More recently two related perspectives on these concepts have attracted linguists' attention: the formal criteria for their recognition and the relations between the two concepts. Using the systemic functional model as their point of departure, the papers in the present volume consider the two notions in a wider context by relating them to the interpersonal and textual metafunctions of language.Amsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.Series IV,Current issues in linguistic theory ;v. 118.Grammar, Comparative and generalTopic and commentDiscourse analysisGrammar, Comparative and generalTopic and comment.Discourse analysis.415Hasan Ruqaiya164719Fries Peter Howard168933MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910808538703321On Subject and Theme4060916UNINA
