A Corpus-Based Approach to Clause Combining in English from the Systemic Functional Perspective
Description
(The M.A.K. Halliday Library Functional Linguistics Series) 1st ed. 2019 Edition
by Qingshun He (Author)
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.
