How are they realized in chapter five of “White Fang” by Jack London? Scope of the study Given the aim and the research questions as set above, within the framework of a minor M.A thesis, the study cannot cover all aspects of functional grammar What it attempts to is to confirm itself to the exploration of the logico-semantic relations between clauses This involves a review on the notions concerning the clause complex and the logico-semantic relations between clauses As the aim of this thesis is to explore how the logico-semantic relations are realized in chapter five of “White Fang” by Jack London, its second focus is on analyzing chapter five “White Fang and the Indians” of the novel “White Fang” in terms of logico-semantic relations TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Data collection Data collected for analysis and discussion is from clauses in chapter “White Fang and the Indians” in the novel “White Fang” by the noted American writer, Jack London, which was published by Longman Group UK Limited in 1968 Methods of the study The study is conducted as an attempt to understand more about the nature of logico-semantic relations between clauses in English and their realization in chapter in the novel “White Fang” Thus, descriptive and analytical methods will be used as the principal ones for the study The descriptive method is used to re-examine the notions relating to the clause complex and its logico-semantic relations between clauses The analytical method is used to analyze the text (chapter five of “White Fang”) in terms of logico-semantic relations Design of the study The study is organized around parts: Part A states the reasons for choosing the topic, the aim, research questions, the scope, data collection, the methods of the study, and the research design Part B, the main part of the study, consists of two chapters: Chapter – Theoretical Background – provides an overview of systemic functional grammar, context and the role of context in interpreting meaning, grammatical rank scale, clauses and clause complexes, the notion of taxis and the logico-semantic relations between clauses in clause complexes Chapter attempts to answer the question “How are logico-semantic relations realized in Chapter „White Fang and the Indians‟ in the novel „White Fang‟ by Jack London?” This chapter analyzes chapter five of “White Fang” in terms of logico-semantic relations, discusses and makes some comments on the findings Part C draws some conclusions, makes some implications for teaching and learning English and some suggestions for further research TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com PART B: DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER THEORETICAL BACKGROUND 1.1 Introduction This chapter reviews some basic concepts that set the theoretical orientation for the study The chapter focuses on five parts: (1) what is functional grammar? (2) the role of contextual analysis, (3) grammatical rank scale, (4) clause and clause complex, and (5) logico-semantic relations between clauses in clause complexes in English 1.2 What is functional grammar? According to Martin, et al (1997: 1), “functional grammar is a way of looking at grammar in terms of how grammar is used In the field of linguistics, the main alternative to functional grammar is formal grammar, which is concerned with the ways in which our genes constrain the shape of our grammars, and thus constrain what we can and cannot say.” Martin, et al state that functional grammar focuses on the development of grammatical systems as a means for people to interact with each other It provides us with tools for understanding why a text is the way it is A functional grammar is a grammar that respects speakers‟ rights to make up their own minds about how they choose to talk; at the same time it makes speakers explicitly aware of the choices they have available, so they can make an informed decision about the options they choose Its orientation is social, in other words, rather than biological For Halliday, language is “a network of systems or interrelated sets of options for making meaning” (Halliday, 1994: 15), thus language is “systemic” The term „functional‟ is used to indicate that the approach is concerned with meaning TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com Functional grammar, in Thompson‟s (1996: 8) view, sets out to investigate what the range of relevant choices are, both in the kinds of meanings that we might want to express (or functions that we might want to perform) and in the kinds of wordings that we can use to express these meanings; and to match these two sets of choices Functional Grammar seeks to be a theory which is “functional” in at least three different, though interrelated senses: (i) it takes a functional view on the nature of language; (ii) it attaches primary importance to functional relations at different levels in the organization of grammar; (iii) it wishes to be practically applicable to the analysis of different aspects of language and language use 1.3 The role of contextual analysis 1.3.1 What is context? In linguistics, the term „context‟ has been used quite commonly So what is context? For some scholars, context seems just to be the minimal stretch of language that helps to understand what is written and spoken (Brown & Yule, 1983: 35) Nunan (1993: 7) considers context as an important concept in discourse analysis According to him, “context refers to the situation giving rise to the discourse, and within which the discourse is embedded.” (Nunan, 1993: - 8) In the view of Hymes (1962) (cited in Brown and Yule, 1983: 38), “A context can support a range of meanings When a form is used in a context it eliminates the meanings possible to that context other than those the form can signal: the context eliminates from consideration the meanings possible in the form other than those the context can support.” From a complementary perspective, Hoang Van Van (2006: 40) sees context as „the situation in which the text or the linguistic interaction takes place gives the participants a great deal of information about the meanings that are being exchanged, and the meanings that are likely to be exchanged‟ And context, TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com 43 PART C: CONCLUSION Recapitulation In this study, the logico-semantic relations and their realization in Chapter „White Fang and the Indians‟ in the novel „White Fang‟ by Jack London have been finished The rationale, the aim, research questions, the scope and the method of the study have been set in Part A In Chapter 1, I have tried to present the theoretical issues which set the background of the study Correspondingly, two main types of logico-semantic relations are carefully re-examined Chapter deals with how the logico-semantic relations are realized in the text This is also the main chapter in Part B which investigates the relationship between clauses in clause complexes of a text in terms of logico-semantic type In this chapter, both types of logico-semantic relations are present in the text in which expansion is predominant than projection The reason for this is that the writer mainly describes the characters, their behavior and actions Therefore, few conversations between them are quoted or reported In expansion, extension is predominant than elaboration and enhancement because the text is constructed to give more information rather than explain it In projection, projecting locution is predominant than projecting idea, for here the characters communicate with each other by languages rather than by thoughts Part C provides TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com 44 some implications inferred from the study and suggests further research However, due to a limitation of time and sources of material relating to the field, there are some unavoidable weaknesses in the study Therefore, any remark and comment contributed to the development of the study will be highly appreciated Implications of the study The study on logico-semantic relations between clauses in clause complexes is useful for both teaching and learning English Firstly, the study provides how an aspect of meaning – the logico-semantic relations – reveals in a text, and by implication, how the clause complex framework is used to analyze the logico-semantic relations in a piece of narrative Secondly, the findings of the study reveal some typical features of the text that belongs to narrative genre and provide us with a useful tool to analyze a text in terms of logico-semantic relations Based on that, we can know how to identify some other features of different types of texts Thirdly, through the study, we may have a full understanding of logicosemantic relations between clauses in clause complexes Especially, this knowledge is helpful to students in developing their English language skills in which reading and writing are important ones in understanding written language For reading skill, if we know what a sentence (the term used in traditional grammar) or a clause (the term used in functional grammar) is and how it is related to other sentences or clauses, we may understand who or what the writer is writing about and what he/ she wants to say about them or it And what about writing skill? It is said that writing that contains mostly short, simple sentences or clause simplexes can be uninteresting or even irritating to read Writing that consists of mostly long, complex sentences or clause complexes is usually difficult for readers to comprehend Good writers, therefore, should use a variety of sentence types or clause types in a correct and suitable way TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com 45 Finally, the study is beneficial for both English teachers and learners in teaching and learning translation If in traditional grammar, the sentence is considered to be „the basic unit of teaching and language practice‟ (Richards & Rodgers, 1986: 4), then the clause can be regarded as the basic unit in functional grammar Understanding clause complexes and logico-semantic relations partly helps both teachers and learners translate a text well and accurately Suggestion for further study This paper only concerns with logico-semantic relations between clauses in clause complexes Also, there are still many other aspects below the clause complex which have not been used to analyze the text such as embedded or down-ranked clauses, Theme, Mood, Transitivity, and Cohesion In order to have a comprehensive understanding about the meanings of the text these aspects should be taken into consideration Moreover, the study is limited to the analysis of one chapter of a novel in terms of logico-relations Further research, therefore, should be extended to investigate the whole novel TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com 46 REFERENCES Bloor, Thomas & Meriel (1995), The Functional Analysis of English, Oxford University Press Inc., Oxford Brown, G & Yule, G (1983), Discourse Analysis, CUP, Cambridge Downing, A & Locke, P (1992), A University Course in English Grammar, International Book Distributors Ltd, Prentice Hall International Eggins, S (1994), Introduction to Systemic Functional Linguistics, Continuum Wellington House, Wellington Halliday, M.A.K (1970), Language Structure and Language Function, (In) New Horizon in Linguistics J Lyons (Ed), Harmonsworth: Penguin Pp 140-165 Halliday, M.A.K (1985), Spoken and Written Language, Deakin University, Geelong Victoria Halliday, M.A.K (1994), An Introduction to Functional Grammar, Second Edition, Edward Arnold, London Halliday, M.A.K (2004), Dẫn luận ngữ pháp chức (Hoàng Văn Vân dịch), In lần 3, Nhà xuất Đại học Quốc Gia, Hà Nội TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com 47 Hoàng Văn Vân (2006), Introducing Discourse Analysis, Nhà xuất Giáo dục, Hà Nội 10 Hymes, D (1962), The Ethography of speaking in Anthropology and Human Behavior, Anthropological Society of Washington, Washington, DC 11 Jacobs, R.A (1995), English Syntax: A grammar for English Language Professionals, Oxford University Press, New York 12 Lock, G (1996), Functional English Grammar: An introduction for second language teachers, Cambridge University Press, New York 13 London, J (1989), White Fang, Longman Group UK Limited, Hong Kong 14 Martin, J.R., Matthiessen, C.M.I.M., & Painter, C (1997), Working with Functional Grammar, Arnold, London 15 Murphy, R (1994), Engish Grammar in Use, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge 16 Nguyễn Hoà (2000), An introduction to Discourse Analysis, ĐHQG, Hà Nội 17 Nunan, D (1993), Introducing Discourse Analysis, Penguin, London 18 Oxford Learner‟s Pocket Dictionary (2008), Oxford University Press, Hong Kong 19 Quirk, R & Greenbaum, S (1987), A University Grammar of English, Longman Group UK Limited, Hong Kong 20 Richards, J.C & Rodgers, T.S (1986), Approaches & Methods in Language Teaching: A descriptive & analysis, Cambridge University Press, United Kingdom 21 Thompson, G (1996), Introducing Functional Grammar, Oxford University Press Inc., London 22 Thomson, A.J & Martinet, A.V (1989), A Practical English Grammar, Oxford University Press, Hong Kong TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com 48 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com I APPENDICES APPENDIX THE ANALYSIS OF THE TEXT (LOGICO-SEMANTIC RELATIONS BETWEEN CLAUSES IN CLAUSE COMPLEXES IN CHAPTER “WHITE FANG AND THE INDIANS” IN THE NOVEL “WHITE FANG” BY JACK LONDON) 1st lll (1) The cub came upon them suddenly:ll (2) he had been careless.lll = (clarification) 2nd lll (3) He crossed an open place ll (4) and went in among some trees;
