Swales

Summary
-All he basically wrote about was discourse community. What they are, the rules to be one, and all of that.

            Syntheses
-In the first paragraph of the reading does that for you, it goes through and tells you the syntheses. They even talk about Porter who we have read about.

  1. Lisa, you definitely need more information here. What it Swales's understanding of a discourse community? Why does he take the time to lay out his ideas in so much detail? Why does he make the argument he does? What does this say about how he is trying to affect his own discourse community?
