Review. Metadiscourse in digital communication. New research, approaches and methodologies

Abstract

Patricio Moya reviews the book Metadiscourse in digital communication. New research, approaches and methodologies, edited by Larissa D'Angelo, Stefania Maci and  Anna Mauranen and published by Palgrave MacMillan el 2021. 

In the review, Patricio Moya Muñoz examines a book that contains a compilation of studies on metadiscourse, a concept used to investigate both the way in which writers conceive interaction with their texts and their readers and the linguistic expressions that refer to the discourse itself. The reviewer highlights the innovative and critical nature and approach of the volume for engaging in metadiscourse research, particularly in multimodal and academic discourse genres.
