Abstract:

This book is the first comprehensive account of 'body language' as
'paralanguage' informed by Systemic Functional Semiotics (SFS). It brings
together the collaborative work of internationally renowned academics and
emerging scholars to offer a fresh linguistic perspective on gesture, body
orientation, body movement, facial expression and voice quality resources that
support all spoken language.

The authors create a framework for distinguishing non-semiotic behaviour from
paralanguage, and provide a comprehensive modelling of paralanguage in each of
the three metafunctions of meaning (ideational, interpersonal and textual).
Illustrations of the application of this new model for multimodal discourse
analysis draw on a range of contexts, from social media vlogs, to animated
children's narratives, to face-to-face teaching. "Modelling Paralanguage Using
Systemic Functional Semiotics" offers an innovative way for dealing with
culture-specific and context specific paralanguage.
