Schematic Organisation And Rhetorical Relations

Halliday & Matthiessen (2004: 583-4):
This schematic organisation is contextual: it is projected onto the text from the context … in which it operates. At the same time, the text is organised semantically as a complex of rhetorical relations, and it is these relations that are realised by the combination of conjunction and clause complexing.
