Engagement in Medical Research Discourse

A Multisemiotic Approach to Dialogic Positioning

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book integrates insights from dialogic theory and SFL to extend our understandings of engagement in medical research articles, going beyond notions of the role of verbal dialogue to encompass mathematical and visual semiotics and consider text not just as language but as multisemiosis.
