Aspects of Cohesion in Monologue.
Thompson, Susan
Applied Linguistics, v15 n1 p58-75 Mar 1994
Twenty different monologues were analyzed; and the interrelating roles that clause relations, lexico-grammatical cohesion, and intonation choices play in creating cohesive monologue were examined. It is argued that these linguistic resources can be exploited by speakers to signal underlying concepts and help listeners interpret the text. (Contains 33 references.) (Author/LB)
