EIU2110Forms and Function: English in context(ART)
Lorraine Bullock 6 points + 3 hours per week + First semester + Clayton + Prerequisites: EIU1010, EIU1020 or permission Synopsis: This subject examines how form and function in English are seen as part of the interaction between the participants in a language situation, both in speech and writing. It is based on a functional approach to language study, especially on Halliday's concept of language as a social semiotic which observes language in its broad social context as a system of choices rather than an isolated phenomenon existing apart from outside influence. The main theme of the course is based on Halliday's concept of field, tenor and mode; this theme connects each session and allows a deeper investigation of the subject. Assessment: Written (2500 words): 30% + Examinations (1 hour): 20% + Seminar participation: 5% + Research paper (1200 words): 25% + Seminar paper and reading focus: 20% |
