Directory         1.    Sara Talaee, Move Analysis Applied to Dissertation Abstracts Message 1: Move Analysis Applied to Dissertation Abstracts Date: 18-May-2010 From: Sara Talaee <belle_fille1025yahoo.com> Subject: Move Analysis Applied to Dissertation Abstracts E-mail this message to a friend For my MA thesis I am doing a comparative genre analysis of dissertation abstracts in the hard and soft sciences with respect to move analysis. So, what I need is a suitable model for move analysis in the genre of abstracts. For introduction writing, Swale's model for move analysis is available but unfortunately I couldn't find a convenient model for the above mentioned analysis for abstracts. I would be really grateful if you could help me in finding a suitable one. So, many thanks in advance.
