Die identifikasie van generies onderskeidende strategieë in dramatiese kommunikasie: ’n interdlssiplinêre benadering

The identification of generically distinctive strategies in dramatic communication: an interdisciplinary approach This article is an attempt to demonstrate the identification of text strategies that enhance dramatic function in literature, i.e. strategies that confront the receiver with alternative possibilities of choice. Consequently I investigate, among others, linguistic, judicial and philosophical discourses on explicit argumentation strategies. This investigation is undertaken in order to infer analogous drama strategies with the potential to function implicitly rather than explicitly, as the informativity of literary communication appears to be relative to the degree of the implicitness of strategies employed The strategies identified are thus explained in terms of the logic of a genre model (Strydom 1996) in order to explicate their genre character. As a first step towards testing my conclusions empirically, reading reports of specific drama texts are used.
