For the moment that's where this introductory course ends. However, more material will appear hear shortly. The additional material will include a section in this set of notes exploring the application of the Engagement framework set out above to issues in critical text analysis. For example, I'll be demonstrating how Engagement can be applied to exploring the issue of the discursive construction of relations of power and solidarity,
I will also be adding a new section on what in the Appraisal framework is termed Graduation - the set of resources by which the force or tone or intensity of an utterance may be raised or lowered or by which the we vary to "focus" or preciseness of the semantic categories we employ in our communications.
