商品簡介
In a multi-dimensional approach to text and discourse coherence, and taking as point of departure the notions of text and discourse as units of communication, Alonso combines all the relevant contributions that have helped her understand the structure and functioning of coherence and discourse units, regardless of their theoretical origin or affiliation. In sections on describing structural coherence and developing cognitive coherence, she considers such topics as a brief history of text and discourse linguistics, coherence and discourse structure, from structural to cognitive coherence, the conceptual integration approach to discourse coherence, and the multi-dimensional communicative approach to discourse coherence.
