Dear all,
Could you please suggest any relevance-theoretic work on metadiscourse? I
would be grateful if I could have the details of any such references ...
Thank you.
Well, not really RT, but found this summary of Galasinski's book on
_Deception_ -- which has a chapter on 'metadiscursive deception', as opposed to
common-or-garden _discursive_ deception, that is. Galasinski finds illustrations for
this tricky phenomenon in his corpus of current political speech in UK.

Cheers,

JL

    research by including 'Metadiscursive ... Deception' 
    [chapter IV]  The author defines the study as
