摘要：Academic discourse is generally thought of as rational,objective and dispassionate because it deals with facts,figures and arguments. However,on many occasions it has been described as persuading the reader not only by the “heavy” artillery,or relaying factual knowledge,but also using the “softer” strategy of persuading by an appropriate choice of linguistic means (Hyland 2004). The latter seems no less important than the former. Interestingly,along these lines a distinction between hard and soft knowledge disciplines is often drawn (ibid.). Despite differences among individual disciplines,generally in exact sciences argumentation seems to derive more from factual,or ‘hard’,knowledge,whereas human sciences rely more on interpretation. Linguistics seems to be strangely placed between the two extremes,since nowadays its instruments of research are increasingly modified and seem to acquire a similarity with social and in some cases even with exact sciences.
