Date: 21-Mar-2007 From: Jan Engberg <jeasb.dk> Subject: PhD Course on Text and Knowledge in LSP
PhD-Course: Construction and Interpretation of Text and Knowledge in Specialised Discourse
The main aim of this 3-day PhD-course (the first of a series of courses to be held in the next two years on lexicography, translation and knowledge communication) is to show how specific aspects of text in their functional context may be dealt with linguistically. In the course, we intend to give an impression of the advantages of focusing upon different aspects when describing specialised texts in their functional context and the generation of practical rules for the construction and interpretation of such texts and knowledge.
