Writers in different fields utilize different means to achieve
success in the communication of their intended meaning to their
audience. By manipulating textual resources, writers sometimes say
something and mean something different. Much has been said and
written about discourse properties such as cohesion and coherence
which contribute to what is called texture in a text. The use of
such textual resources has been extensively examined in a variety
of written and spoken genres. Along the same line of enquiry, a
more recent approach in applied linguistics in general and
discourse analysis in particular has been to investigate the
distribution of meta-textual devices in academic writings, with
little attention paid to such resources in literary writing.
Intended to apply the trend of research on meta-text to literary
form of discourse, this monograph sets out to compare the use of
such resources in novels of both original nature and their
simplified versions. The audience of the book are primarily
researchres in discourse anlaysis and those interesred in text and
literary analysis.
