Abstract:

Discourse Reflexivity in Linear Unit Grammar: The case of IMDb message boards
represents a significant landmark. Not only is it the first in-depth
corpus-based study to be based on Linear Unit Grammar, it is also the first
study to present a unified model of both Linear Unit Grammar and Linear Unit
Discourse Analysis. To illustrate this model, the book focuses on the role of
discourse reflexivity in the linear structure of online message board
discourse from the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) webpage. It is shown that
discourse reflexivity plays a central role in the linear structure and
antagonism characteristic of this type of discourse. This book will
particularly appeal to those who have an interest in carrying forward the
innovations in the description of grammar, lexis and discourse proposed by
John Sinclair in his lifetime as well as to those with a specific interest in
discourse reflexivity and computer-mediated communication.
