This book is a progressive exposition on Halliday's academic
thought and its origins by the renowned linguist Hu Zhuanglin,
based on 30 years of research. The first part, "Chinese Origin,"
introduces readers to the author's gradual understanding that
Halliday's academic thought mainly came from Chinese scholars such
as Wang Li, Luo Changpei, and Gao Mingkai. In 1980s, Halliday and
his students introduced the theory of Systemic Functional
Linguistics into the foreign language and linguistics circles in
China; thus, Halliday's academic thought returned to where it
originated. The second part, "A Discussion of Theories," mainly
addresses the author's experience and further discussions after
learning Halliday's theory. The theme of the third part is
"Discourse Analysis" and focuses on the greatest difference between
Systemic Functional Linguistics and traditional grammar—sentence
grammar. Halliday emphasizes the study of "discourse," and
sentences are only the embodiment of discourse at the next level.
The fourth part, "The Study of Chinese," applies Halliday's
linguistic theory to the evolution of the research of the Chinese
language in China, which can better explain the theme of "return"
and is of great significance for Chinese scholars' understanding
and application of Halliday's academic thought. Â
