Applied Stylistics II
Textual Cohesion and Coherence

This course will help students become familiar with certain linguistics mechanisms that build coherence/cohesion within a text: lexical and grammatical substitutes, alternating “thème/rhème”, modal qualifiers and argumentative connectors. We will analyze these linguistic and textual processes. Students will write various short texts: descriptive, explicative, and argumentative. The purpose of the course is to reach clarity and to express nuances using textual analysis and producing written texts.

No Required Texts.
