Abstract:

"A Linguistic Handbook of French for Translators and Language Students" offers
the reader an in-depth contrastive study of French and English based on recent
theories of linguistics and discourse analysis. At the same time it is a
practical manual for the advanced language student or the translator with
dozens of exercises in analyzing and translating French along with detailed
corrections.

Organized in three sections – Structure, Perspective and Coherence – the
handbook first explores French word formation and syntax, then moves on to the
use of tense and aspect, illocution and speech styles in various text types.
Finally, problems concerning textual coherence and cohesion in both languages
are discussed: anaphora and ellipsis, relevance and equivalence and
information structure.

Each chapter is followed by a list of suggested readings for further
discussion and a detailed glossary at the end of the book explains all
technical terms used.

The handbook is designed to be used either as a textbook or for individuals
working at home.
