Description
The contributions show the facets of instructiveness as encoded in the language and/or purpose of texts, with some features of instructiveness bridging periods and genres, and others being genuinely specific to particular texts. It is this comprehensive perspective on instructional writing that makes the volume interesting for scholars of modern and historical pragmatics and discourse analysis, genre studies and text type studies.
