This volume, the first of the Cerlis Series, investigates variation in scholarly communication from different analytical perspectives. Ranging from genre analysis to text linguistics, systemic functional grammar and multimodal approaches, its main purpose is that of providing insights into forms and modes of academic and scientific communication still little considered or as yet neglected in existing literature because of their relative novelty – due to changing practical and domain-related needs or cognitive expectations on the part of the audience – or their generic elusiveness – resulting from processes of multi-generic contaminations. On this basis, the volume discusses generic variation both in contrastive terms, by comparing and distinguishing contiguous genres, and, in analytical terms, by evidencing trends of variation and examining variation-sensitive elements in different textualizations of the same genre, and focusing especially on such variables as rhetorical strategy, writer stance, interpersonal engagement, and argumentation.

Questo volume, il primo della CERLIS Series, esamina la variazione linguistica nella comunicazione accademica da diverse prospettive, che includono l’analisi del genere, la linguistica testuale, la grammatica sistemico-funzionale e gli approcci multimediali, con lo scopo di fornire approfondimenti in merito a quelle realizzazioni della comunicazione accademica e scientifica ancora poco considerate o addirittura trascurate nella letteratura corrente per la loro relativa novità – dovuta ai cambiamenti di convenzioni disciplinari o meccanismi cognitivi a seguito del variare di pratiche e canali di comunicazione – oppure alla non-definitezza di alcuni generi testuali – risultante da processi di contaminazione plurigenere. Sulla base di questi presupposti teorici, il volume esamina la variazione sia in termini contrastivi – comparando e distinguendo generi contigui – e in termini analitici – mettendo in evidenza tendenze di variazione o esaminando quegli elementi più facilmente variabili in diverse testualizzazioni dello stesso genere – con particolare attenzione ad aspetti quali le strategie retoriche, lo stance autoriale e il suo posizionamento, e le risorse argomentative.

Abstract

This volume, the first of the Cerlis Series, investigates variation in scholarly communication from different analytical perspectives. Ranging from genre analysis to text linguistics, systemic functional grammar and multimodal approaches, its main purpose is that of providing insights into forms and modes of academic and scientific communication still little considered or as yet neglected in existing literature because of their relative novelty – due to changing practical and domain-related needs or cognitive expectations on the part of the audience – or their generic elusiveness – resulting from processes of multi-generic contaminations. On this basis, the volume discusses generic variation both in contrastive terms, by comparing and distinguishing contiguous genres, and, in analytical terms, by evidencing trends of variation and examining variation-sensitive elements in different textualizations of the same genre, and focusing especially on such variables as rhetorical strategy, writer stance, interpersonal engagement, and argumentation.
