Religious discourse

[Daniel Collins]

Here are few older references that I have found interesting:

Du Bois, John W.  1986.  Self-evidence and ritual speech.  In
Evidentiality, ed. Wallace Chafe and
	Johanna Nichols, 313-36.  Norwood, N.J.
Dzameshie, Alex K.  1993.  The use of politeness strategies as
solidarity and deference moves in
	Christian sermonic discourse.  The SECOL Review  17: 113-26.
Ferguson, Charles A. 1976.  The collect as a form of discourse. In
Language in religious practice, ed.
	William J. Samarin, 101-9.  Rowley, Massachusetts.
-----.  1985.  The study of religious discourse.  Georgetown
University roundtable on languages
	and linguistics  1985: 205-13.
Samarin, William J.  1976.  The language of religion.  In Language in
religious practice, ed. William
	J. Samarin, 3-13.  Rowley, Massachusetts.

Also A. P. Martinich's work on religious speech acts (I can't turn up
a more precise reference at this point).
