-Teun A. van Dijk, University of Amsterdam and Editor of the journals Text and Discourse and Society
- Professor de Beugrande has been one of the most influential scholars in text linguistics since he helped to found it as a discipline. He commands a large panorama of knowledge and brings this learning to bear on a variety of topics, giving fresh insights and new dimensions. In his latest book, he ranges over linguistic, educational, and cultural disciplines in order to synthesize an important framework within which text and discourse can be understood in new ways.
-John Sinclair, Birmingham University and Editor-in-Chief of Collins COBUILD English Language Dictionary
