Description and Table of Contents

Description

"Evaluation" is the expression in discourse of what a writer or speaker thinks and feels. It is often discussed under the heading of "stance" or "the interpersonal". In this book, writers coming from different standpoints are brought together, providing a profile of the topic from several perspectives. These perpectives include: systemic linguistics; narrative; corpus linguistics; and discourse analysis. This book is intended for advanced level undergraduates, postgraduates, and researchers in discourse analysis. More specifically, those studying and working on evaluation, stance, and attitudinal or interpersonal language.
