This book addresses an important aspect of how language is used in written communication: the ways that writers reflect on their texts to refer to themselves, their readers or the text itself. This is known as METADISCOURSE. Metadiscourse is a key resource in language, as it allows the writer to engage with readers in familiar and expected ways. Writers use the devices of metadiscourse to adjust the level of personality in their texts, to offer a representation of themselves and their arguments. This helps the reader organise, interpret and evaluate the information presented in the text. Metadiscourse is therefore crucial to successful communication. Knowing how to identify metadiscourse as a reader is a key skill to be learnt by students of discourse analysis. Learning how to use metadiscourse in writing is an important tool for students of academic writing in both the L1 and L2 context. This book has four main purposes: - to provide an accessible introduction to metadiscourse, discussing its role and importance in written communication and reviewing current thinking on the topic. - to explore examples of metadiscourse in a range of texts from business, academic, journalistic, and student writing - to offer a new theory of metadiscourse - to show the relevance of this theory to students, academics and language teachers.

This book offers a helpful resource for English for Academic Purposes (EAP) practitioners, combining theoretical content with in-depth insights rooted in practice. EAP has a key role in preparing students for academic challenges in English-medium universities globally. With the increasing need for proficiency in academic English, there is a demand for a comprehensive resource that caters to instructors who are actively involved in or considering a career in the teaching of EAP. This book addresses this need through five clear thematic sections: the development of EAP practice and pedagogy, creating effective EAP courses, exploring linguistic issues, language skills, and EAP instruction, issues in assessment of learning and practice in EAP, and current perspectives in EAP. The volume features contributions from experts with extensive EAP teaching experience, research backgrounds, and scholarly publications. By drawing on their theoretical understanding and practical insights, the book will equip ELT professionals with essential knowledge, strategies, and practical approaches to tailor their instruction to the unique needs of EAP learners. It will also be of interest to teacher educators, students, and academics researching language teaching in English for Academic Purposes, English for Specific Purposes and English-Medium Instruction contexts.

Summary from OCLC: Academic criticism can be highly fraught and threatening, potentially wounding to the reviewed author and disruptive to the discipline, but it occurs routinely in review genres. This book explores how academics publically evaluate each others' work. Focusing on blurbs, book reviews, review articles, and literature reviews, the international contributors to the volume show how writers manage to critically engage with others' ideas, argue their own viewpoints, and establish academic credibility while simultaneously navigating these risky interactions.

Academic discourse is a rapidly growing area of study, attracting researchers and students from a diverse range of fields. This is partly due to the growing awareness that knowledge is socially constructed through language and partly because of the emerging dominance of English as the language of scholarship worldwide. Large numbers of students and researchers must now gain fluency in the conventions of English language academic discourses to understand their disciplines, establish their careers and to successfully navigate their learning. This accessible and readable book shows the nature and importance of academic discourses in the modern world, offering a clear description of the conventions of spoken and written academic discourse and the ways these construct both knowledge and disciplinary communities. This unique genre-based introduction to academic discourse will be essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying TESOL, applied linguistics, and English for Academic Purposes.

This book is about metadiscourse, the rhetorical acts used by authors as they talk with readers in order to guide rather than inform them and build solidarity. Metadiscourse in use is illustrated by a variety of written texts spanning the period from 500 B.C. to the present. Perspectives from rhetoric, speech communication, linguistics, literature, philosophy, and psychology are used to begin building a theory of metadiscourse. The theory is tested with two empirical studies having practical classroom applications: a descriptive analysis of metadiscourse use in social studies school and non-school texts and an experimental study of the effects of metadiscourse on students' learning and attitudes.

Applied Linguistics and Language Study General Editor: Christopher N. Candlin, Chair Professor of Applied Linguistics, Centre for English Language Education & Communication Research Department of English City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong. Since it was first established in the 1970's the Applied Linguistics and Language Study series has become a major force in the study of practical problems in human communication and language education. Drawing extensively on empirical research and theoretical work in linguistics, sociology, psychology and education, the series explores key issues in language acquisition and language use. Disciplinary Discourses: Social Interactions in Academic Writing presents a series of innovative studies focusing on eight disciplines and a variety of key genres to examine the relationships between the cultures of academic communities and their discoursal practices. It proposes a framework to account for the interactions between writers and their readers in published academic writing, draws clear teaching suggestions, and offers detailed methodological principles and suggestions to support further research. Drawing on discourse analysis, corpus linguistics, and the voices of professional insiders, Ken Hyland explores how academics use language to organise their professional lives, carry out intellectual tasks and reach agreement on what will count as knowledge. Through its focus on the features of key genres, this book shows what close textual analyses can reveal about the social practices and institutional ideologies of different academic communities, and at the same time provides a clear basis for further research. The theoretical and descriptive accounts have strong practical implications for the understanding of academic writing and disciplinary communities. It will therefore be of great interest to teachers and students of academic writing, English for Specific Purposes, and discourse analysis more generally. Ken Hyland is an Associate Professor in the Department of English, City University of Hong Kong.
