Building Coherence and Cohesion

Sinopsis del Libro

This book examines the resources that speakers employ when building conversations. These resources contribute to overall coherence and cohesion, which speakers create and maintain interactively as they build on each other s contributions. The study is cross-linguistic, drawing on parallel corpora of task-oriented dialogues between dyads of native speakers of English and Spanish. The framework of the investigation is the analysis of speech genres and their staging; the analysis shows that each stage in the dialogues exhibits different thematic, rhetorical, and cohesive relations. The main contributions of the book are: a corpus-based characterization of a spoken genre (task-oriented dialogue); the compilation of a body of analysis tools for generic analysis; application of English-based analyses to Spanish and comparison between the two languages; and a study of the characteristics of each generic stage in task-oriented dialogue.

Arte, religión y sociedad

This little-known book of the author brings together eight approaches to the subject of the relationship between sacred art and profane art; between religion, ritual and aesthetics. Clearly and with abundant examples, Westheim explores how history has changed the significance of the work of art, of being a representation of the divinity or even of herself, to become a museum piece, destined to the valuation of their artistic merits.
