Whereas Part 1 confines itself largely to the simplex clause, Part 2 moves from the clause towards the discourse and its context. The first three chapters deal with the areas of illocution, information structuring (topic and focus, theme and rheme, given and new information, etc.), and clause combining within complex sentences. Chapter 4 examines approaches to discourse, text and context across the three theories. The fifth chapter deals with the learning of language by both native and non-native speakers, and applications of the theories in stylistics, computational linguistics, translation and contrastive studies, and language pathology. The final chapter assesses the extent to which each theory attains the goals it sets for itself, and then outlines a programme for the development of an integrated approach responding to a range of criteria of descriptive and explanatory adequacy.Studies in language companion series ;v. 64.Structural linguisticsFunctionalism (Linguistics)Role and reference grammarSystemic grammarStructural linguistics.Functionalism (Linguistics)Role and reference grammar.Systemic grammar.410/.1/8Butler Christopher1945-156456MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910958985303321From clause to discourse and beyond4346582UNINA
