This work offers a clear account of written discourse analysis.
Hoey clearly sets out his own approach and compares it with other
approaches. Each chapter introduces key concepts and analytical
techniques, describes important parallel work and major issues, and
suggests how to apply the ideas to the teaching and learning of
reading and writing. In this activity-based book, Hoey analyses a
wide variety of narrative texts: fairytales, novels, poems, short
stories and jokes; and non narrative texts: posters, timetables,
and till receipts. He shows how much these very differerent text
types have in common with each other and argues that, in the
interaction between writer and reader, the reader has as much power
as the writer.
