Description: For nearly half a century, Professor M. A. K. Halliday has been enriching the discipline of linguistics with his keen insights into the social semiotic phenomenon we call language. This ten-volume series presents the seminal works of Professor Halliday.
Review Quotes: "This collection of papers shows the extraordinary range of Halliday's textual analyses, his sharpness of perception and his delicate touch in reconciling subjective perceptions of a text and objective patterns found in it. From the "stylistics" controversies of the sixties to the highly sophisticated descriptions of ordinary texts in the nineties, Halliday has consistently led the way to a greater understanding of the way language works. Professor John Sinclair, Tuscan Word Centre, Italy." --Blurb from reviewer
