Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

This course aims at introducing students to the principles of the functional approach to language and grammar (as elaborated by M.A.K. Halliday and his colleagues). In particular, it offers an introduction to basic concepts of Systemic Functional Grammar such as the functions of language, information and thematic structure, text and texture, as well as to the structure of the nominal group, embedded clauses and clause complexes. The course combines theoretical considerations with practical application and provides the students with a set of techniques which are applied to the grammatical analysis of authentic examples from a variety of English texts. Finally, it explores the applications of functional analysis to the teaching of English as a foreign language and locates M.Α.Κ. Halliday and his school within the history of linguistics.
