Synopsis

Comparing metadiscourse employment in research articles across langauges and scineces and unable to systematically account for the differences and similarities, this book moves to a qualitative analysis of metadiscursively loaded utterances in an attempt to deduce a set of basic principles that help authors decide the appropriate use of metadiscourse varieties. Gricean cooperative principle framework adopted and adapted here was found to plausibly serve such a purpose. It is suggested that macro and micro metadiscursive conventions and choices are governed by a set of maxims that gurantee qulaity, quantity, manner and interaction in research articles.
