Review of Jean Quigley, The Grammar of Autobiography: A Developmental Account
نویسندگان
چکیده
In The Grammar of Autobiography, Jean Quigley makes a claim that one often hears nowadays that the self is constructed in autobiographical narrative discourse. Two things distinguish her analysis of narrative selfconstruction from many other treatments of the subject. First, she offers a genuinely interdisciplinary account, drawing on functional linguistics, theoretical and developmental psychology, and accounts of language development. Second, she studies a particular category of linguistic forms, modals, as the key to narrative selfconstruction. Comments Suggested Citation: Wortham, Stanton. (2001).
