Discourse Analysis and the Greek New Testament : Text-Generating Resources, Hardback Book

Discourse Analysis and the Greek New Testament : Text-Generating Resources Hardback

Part of the T&T Clark Library of New Testament Greek series

Hardback

Description

This volume examines and outlines a Systemic Functional Linguistic (SFL) model of discourse analysis and its relationship to New Testament Greek.

The book reflects upon how SFL has grown as a field since it was first introduced to New Testament Greek studies by Stanley E.

Porter in the 1980s. Porter and Matthew Brook O’Donnell first introduce basic concepts regarding discourse analysis and the major approaches towards it within New Testament studies.

They then provide a detailed exploration of discourse analysis in terms of the textual metafunction, beginning with an introduction to the architecture of language within SFL, before exploring several individual elements within it.

By focusing upon these individual components – in particular, theme and information structure, markedness and prominence, and coherence and cohesive harmony – Porter and O’Donnell introduce and exemplify the major resources of the textual metafunction.
