Abstract

Diverging from the long-held homogeneous view of academic discourse, the issue of disciplinarity has come to the forefront in EAP teaching and discourse analysis. Although disciplinary discourse is a well-established and expanding line of inquiry, there has been limited retrospective analysis to unpack its evolutionary nuances. This bibliometric study maps its evolution from 1990 to 2022, tracing its journey from a fringe component within applied linguistics and language pedagogy to a globally recognized field. Using 921 articles retrieved from the Web of Science's core collection, our analysis reveals enduring scholarly interest in disciplinary literacy, writing, and socialization, with a marked shift since 2006 towards exploring the interplay between disciplinary knowledge-making practices and interpersonal features, such as stance, identity, and function. These studies, often using corpus approaches, highlight how these themes both reflect and are shaped by the disciplinary epistemology and ideology inherent in communities of practice. Emerging areas include student writing, spoken English, multimodal resources, and the temporal and interdisciplinary dynamics in various disciplines. The diverse authorship and geographical sources across various fields further underscore the global relevance of these topics. This overview could serve as a valuable resource for researchers, educators, and practitioners navigating this dynamic and significant field.

话语纪律性:对近30年已发表研究的文献计量分析
与长期以来对学术话语的同质化观点不同,学科性问题已成为EAP教学和话语分析的前沿问题。虽然学科话语是一个完善的和不断扩大的调查线,有有限的回顾性分析,以解开其进化的细微差别。本文献计量学研究描绘了其从1990年到2022年的演变,追踪了其从应用语言学和语言教育学的边缘组成部分到全球公认领域的历程。利用从Web of Science核心馆藏中检索的921篇文章,我们的分析揭示了对学科素养、写作和社会化的持久学术兴趣,自2006年以来,对学科知识制造实践与人际特征(如立场、身份和功能)之间相互作用的探索发生了显著转变。这些研究通常使用语料库方法,强调这些主题如何反映并被实践社区中固有的学科认识论和意识形态所塑造。新兴领域包括学生写作,英语口语,多模式资源,以及各学科的时间和跨学科动态。不同领域的不同作者和地理来源进一步强调了这些主题的全球相关性。这个概述可以作为一个有价值的资源,为研究人员,教育工作者和从业者导航这个动态和重要的领域。
