- Part I discusses default orders of constituents in clauses, sentences and phrases, together with the significance of marked orders.
- Part II identifies the constraint that each common conjunction imposes on how readers are to relate the sentence concerned to its context.
- Part III considers patterns of reference including why, once participants have been introduced, they are sometimes referred to only in the verb and sometimes by means of a pronoun or noun phrase, as well. It also addresses the significance of omitting the article when referring to activated participants or concepts.
- Part IV describes some features that have the effect of backgrounding or highlighting information, such as the encoding of information in a participial or relative clause and the use of the historical present.
- Part V considers how different ways of introducing reported speeches reflect their status in stories. It also discusses the motivations for reporting conversation directly versus indirectly and the significance of introducing direct speech with ὅτι recitativum.
