ABSTRACT

This paper explores a potential avenue of dialogue between Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) and Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT), namely genre. SFL's approach to modeling genre is briefly introduced, and key discourse analyses informing genre description are reviewed. Subsequently, the approach is illustrated with respect to analysis of a text from a tertiary law lecture, specifically a legal exemplum genre. The paper closes with commentary on some possible misunderstandings that might stand in the way of practical applications interfacing SFL and CHAT research.

体裁和活动：系统功能语言学（SFL）与文化历史活动理论（CHAT）之间进行对话的潜在场所

摘要

本文探讨了系统功能语言学（SFL）与文化历史活动理论（CHAT）之间的对话的潜在途径，即体裁。简要介绍了SFL的体裁建模方法，并综述了主要的语篇分析方法，该方法有助于体裁描述。随后，就第三次法律讲座的文本分析，特别是法律范例类型，对这种方法进行了说明。本文以对可能将SFL和CHAT研究相联系的实际应用中可能存在的误解的评论作为结尾。
