Functional specificity of explanation in expository texts: a pragmatic model and elaboration principles
... Linguistic Pragmatics and Functional Linguistics. Explanation is analysed from two perspectives: as a communicative act and as a two-part discursive structure. The communicative act of explanation is characterised by a perlocutionary goal of making the reader understand the properties of an entity. This understanding focuses on the properties that are unclear or not obvious to the reader. The perlocutionary goal defines the key feature of the explanation act, which uses diverse verbal tools ...
Continuity of Texts. Metafiction in a Cortazar Short Story and its Swedish Translation
... story Continuidad de los parques, written by the Argentine author Julio Cortázar and translated into Swedish by the translator Jan Sjögren.

The analysis shows that this state of tension is weakened and works differently ...

You, you, you: second-person narrative in the “Invisible” by Paul Auster (2010)
‘Second-person narrative’ is defined by Richardson as one of the most significant narrative forms since the introduction of the stream of consciousness.

On the Dual Role of the Translator of Poetry and the Division of Roles
This article deals with the roles and functions of a translator of poetry. The study identifies certain components of the process, within which a translator acts simultaneously as a transmitter of the original culture, a mediator between the reader and the author of the source text, a co-author, a linguistic innovator, a poet, and a linguist. The two latter roles are crucial for translating poetry. Translators of poetry create ‘their own’ texts. It is obvious that they cannot distance ...

The variance in media mediation shapes specific subjective structures....
