摘要
自从1959年Zellig Harris提出元话语这一概念以来，学者的研究范围从研究语篇包含的内容扩大到了研究语篇的人际手段。元话语理论把写作过程看作社会活动，认为交际活动不仅交换信息商品或服务，而且涉及交际参加者的性格、态度和观点。语篇不仅涉及现实世界的人、地点和活动，而且承认、构建以及协商社会关系。本文探讨元话语与功能语言学的联系，从而说明元话语思想注意到了概念功能、人际功能和语篇功能的互动性，元话语能表达人际意义和语篇意义。
Since Zellig Harris coined the term metadiseourse in 1959,scholars have extended their research scope from the content of texts to the ways they function interpersonally. According to the theory of metadiscourse, writing process is social engagement. Communication is more than just the exchange of information,goods or services,but also involves the personalities, attitudes and opinions of participants. Texts not only deal with people, places and events in the world,but also acknowledge,construct and negotiate social relations. This paper is an attempt to explore the relation between metadiscourse and functional linguistics,and to show that metadiscourse involves the interaction of ideational function,interpersonal function and textual function and that metadiscourse can indicate interpersonal meaning and textual meaning.
