- W1505110192 abstract "The view of academic writing as an objective and faceless kind of discourse is now dead and buried. Replacing it is a view which sees academic discourse as a rhetorical activity involving interactions between writers and readers; a site where academics don’t just offer a view of the world, but negotiate a credible account of themselves and their work by claiming solidarity with readers, evaluating ideas and acknowledging alternative views. Beyond this, of course, writers must also display who they are and construct a convincing argument through a range of disciplinary membershiping conventions which establish proximity with readers. I use the term proximity to refer to a writer’s control of rhetorical features which display both collegial authority as a disciplinary expert and a personal position towards issues in an unfolding text. Proximity involves responding to context of the text and the readers who form part of that context, textually constructing both the writer and the reader as people with similar understandings and goals. In practical terms this means that writers must create texts which represent themselves, their material and their readers in ways which are most likely to meet their readers’ expectations. In other words, proximity entails taking into account participants’ likely objections, background knowledge, rhetorical expectations and purposes. It is how academics accomplish interaction in their writing. In this paper I explore some of the ways this is done in two very different genres: science research papers and popular science articles. Comparing key features from these contexts, I show how different language choices are employed to negotiate academic claims and construct proximity with different audiences." @default.
