- W576475418 abstract "The thesis is concerned with texts that mystify events being reported. It begins by focusingon Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), a currently prominent enterprise, one of whoseconcerns is with the isolation of text which mystifies the nature of events described. WhenCDA isolates mystifying text, it is usually with the perspective of a non-analytical reader,either explicitly or implicitly in mind. However, the notion of a non-analytical reader inCDA is undeveloped from a cognitive point of view. The general structure of the thesis isas follows. In the first section, I show how CDA's approach to highlighting textualmystification is inadvertently bound up with symbolic notions of mental representation incognitive science. In the second section, I outline theories of mental representation inconnectionism and cognitive linguistics which problematise the symbolic assumptions ofCDA and thus what CDA locates as mystifying text. The thesis develops cumulativelytowards an alternative framework for highlighting mystification, in the third section, whichincludes compatible elements from connectionism, cognitive linguistics and recentpsycholinguistic research on inference generation. My framework predicts how certain textcan lead to mystification for a non-analytical reader who has little vested interest in a textand is largely unfamiliar with its subject matter. I show how mystification for this nonanalyticalreader is connected with inference generation but, in contrast to CDA, I providea detailed processing profile for such a reader. Attitudes in CDA towards inferencegeneration are often inconsistent and are in conflict with recent psycholinguistic research.My framework, rooted in empirical psycholinguistic study, enables a more plausible,comprehensive and thus consistent perspective on inference generation in reading and howthis relates to mystification. Finally, my framework also highlights CDA's 'overinterpretation'in text exegesis done by proxy for non-analytical readers." @default.
