Discourse Cohesion: Conjuncts as Connective Devices in English Scientific Prose
Original language description
The monograph deals with the investigation of cohesive devices in English scientific prose. It focuses on one type of cohesive devices, namely conjuncts, in English scientific texts on computers and information technology. The objective of the investigation is to determine how differences between various genres of scientific prose style influence the frequency of occurrence, variety, position and semantic type of conjuncts used. The excerpted conjuncts have been compared and further analysed from the point of view of their formal realization, position in the sentence structure, in paragraph, punctuation and semantic roles. The results suggest that different academic settings, anticipated addressees and purpose of texts influence both the frequency of occurrence and semantic types of the conjuncts used.
