Historical Discourse: The Language of Time, Cause and Evaluation - Continuum Discourse
Dr Caroline Coffin
In contrast to studies which have denied that history has a specialised language, this work demonstrates through a detailed study of historical texts, that writing about the past requires different genres, lexical and grammatical structures. It shows that language is a powerful tool for making meaning in historical writing.
