A Corpus-Based Approach to Clause Combining in English from the Systemic Functional Perspective Hardback
by Qingshun He
Part of the The M.A.K. Halliday Library Functional Linguistics Series series
Hardback
Description
This book presents corpus-based research on functional syntax.
It is the first book to present a comprehensive investigation into grammatical metaphor in English clause combining in large-size corpora.
By providing a systematic illustration of features such as parataxis, hypotaxis and embedding, it fills a gap in the systemic functional literature.
It also offers insights into testing grammatical metaphors using a corpus linguistics methodology.
The book is a useful resource for anyone interested in writing development.
