This book examines the concept of persuasion in written texts for
specialist audiences in the English and Czech languages. By
exploring a corpus of academic research articles, corporate
reports, religious sermons and user manuals the authors aim to
reveal similarities and differences in rhetorical strategies across
cultures and genres. They draw on Biber and Conrad's (2009) model
for contextualising interaction in specialised discourses, Bell's
(1997) framework for the analysis of participants roles, Swales'
(1990) genre analysis approach for considering genre constraints
and Hyland's (2005) metadiscourse model for investigating
writer-reader interaction. The result is a book which will appeal
to researchers and students in Discourse Studies, especially those
with an interest in genre and rhetorical strategies.
