Evaluation in Anglophone and Czech Academic Book Reviews. A Case Study.

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The present paper analyses linguistic-rhetorical strategies conveying evaluation that are utilised by Anglophone and Czech reviewers of academic books from the field of Linguistics. The aim is to explore whether reviewers of one and the same disciplinary community but of different linguistic and cultural contexts adopt identical rhetorical strategies to convey evaluation. For this purpose, both positive and negative evaluative acts were identified in a corpus of 20 English and 20 Czech academic book review articles. The quantitative and qualitative analysis revealed that the variation in the distribution of evaluative acts may be connected with the particular language culture. Furthermore, the results indicate that both groups of reviewers use hedging strategies not only to weaken criticism but also to maintain solidarity with authors of the reviewed books.
