In the last three decades, metadiscourse has caught the attention
of numerous scholars from various research disciplines. This book
adds to the discussion by looking at the phenomenon from a
historical angle. Text analyses with a corpus of sermons and
religious treatises from the 13th to the 18th century provide new
insights into the way authors guide their audience through their
texts and persuade them of their points of view. The focus on the
Middle and Early Modern English periods, which witnessed the
disintegration of the Catholic Church in England, the Reformation,
the decline of Scholasticism and the advent of Renaissance
Humanism, makes evident the influence of socio-cultural factors,
text-type conventions, and a changing author-addressee relationship
on the development of metadiscourse.
