This book presents a comprehensive study of the subject of text and
discourse coherence, integrating some of the traditional trends of
discourse analysis and creating new channels of research which help
to understand the notion further. Based on the work of leading
theoreticians and on the actual consideration of authentic
linguistic material, the book identifies the structural and
cognitive aspects of standard discourse coherence and, as a
variation from other mainstream approaches, it also explores the
more subjective and culturally-bound conceptual aspects of
coherence construction in creative modes of discourse. To achieve
these aims, the study incorporates concepts and analytical
practices from cognitive linguistic theories of conceptualisation;
additionally, it draws from theories of communication to address
the idiosyncratic and socio-cultural aspects which affect the
formation of coherent discourse patterns. The intention is to
broaden the perspective of the subject and to focus on its
complexity, as well as to stress the need to conceive of discourse
coherence as a multi-dimensional phenomenon consisting of numerous
procedural components.
