He also talked about ways to do scientific research, such as how to find the breakthrough point of scientific research. How to deal with the relationship between field and direction, and give young scholars academic spiritual advice? Professor Zhang Delu is distinguished professor of Tongji University? Doctoral supervisor of Tongji University, enjoying special allowance from the State Council? Professor Zhang studied in Australia from 65438 to 0982 and studied under M, the founder of systemic functional linguistics.

Professor Zhang studies functional grammar? Semiotic stylistics? Discourse analysis? Multimodal discourse analysis? Great achievements have been made in foreign language teaching and other fields; While devoting himself to scientific research, Professor Zhang cultivated a group of scholars with both ability and political integrity, and made outstanding contributions to the development of systemic functional linguistics? From 20 14 to 12, what is the research status of systemic functional linguistics? Preface topic and its development trend interviewed Professor Zhang? Zhang: (hereinafter referred to as the author) Zhang.

Teacher, discourse analysis is the core field of systemic functional linguistics. You have written many articles about discourse analysis, published more than 30 related papers in foreign language core journals, and formed a book, The Development and Application of Discourse Coherence and Cohesion Theory, which was published by Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press in 2003. Meanwhile, The Development and Application of Discourse Analysis Theory was published by Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press, 20 12.

Could you please talk about your research experience in discourse analysis? Traditionally, the goal of grammar research is to analyze sentences. Both traditional grammar and formalist grammar schools focus on sentences, while systemic functional linguistics focuses on texts? First of all, discourse is the basic unit of language communication, even a word? A word? Or a series of sentences can be an article.

Can be used as the basic unit of communication. In systemic functional linguistics, the goal of studying grammar is discourse analysis, not just clauses? Learning grammar should link grammar with discourse, so the grammar of systemic functional linguistics is called functional grammar, which actually links the form and meaning of language? At the same time, it studies all aspects of systemic functional linguistics.

Especially vocabulary? Grammar? Sound? The study of phonology mainly involves their role in context, and discourse provides context for their study. (Halliday, 1985) At present, great achievements have been made in the study of discourse analysis, but there are still many problems that need further study? First of all, the relationship between grammar and discourse at the micro level needs to be clarified? In the past, the study of discourse mainly focused on the overall structure of discourse.

Such as genre structure, but there is no in-depth study of the relationship between grammar and discourse at the micro level. Of course, some studies, such as rhetoric structure theory, are making efforts in this regard? Linking grammar research with discourse units that are closer to sentences and larger than sentences, discourse research forms a systematic study from macro to micro, that is, which grammatical units and grammatical patterns are embodied, thus dividing the relationship between grammar and discourse from the whole and part.

At the level? Secondly, the description of semantic system needs further study? In the past, most of the system descriptions were carried out at the grammatical level or at the level related to grammar, and there was not enough research on the social and cultural level. Of course, some aspects, such as evaluation theory, are also carried out at the semantic level? Finally, the relationship between semantic system features and discourse features needs further study? Discourse features come from.

System, what is the relationship between these text features and semantic features, and what kind of decision-making relationship needs to be clarified? These topics are hot topics in systemic functional linguistics? Author: Most of the research you have conducted since 1990s is at the discourse level, especially the relationship between cohesion and coherence, and you have undertaken the social science planning project of the Ministry of Education "The overall situation of discourse coherence".
