Abstract:

This volume reflects the emerging interest in cross-disciplinary variation in 
both spoken and written academic English, exploring the conventions and 
modes of persuasion characteristic of different disciplines and which help 
define academic inquiry. This collection brings together chapters by applied 
linguists and EAP practitioners from seven different countries. The authors 
draw on various specialised spoken and written corpora to illustrate the 
notion of variation and to explore the concept of discipline and the different 
methodologies they use to investigate these corpora. The book also seeks 
to make explicit the valuable links that can be made between research into 
academic speech and writing as text, as process, and as social practice.
