TAXONOMIC STRATEGIES IN RUSSIAN MEDICAL DISCOURSE
Abstract
This article analyzes taxonomic strategies that are most frequently used in academic medical discourse: classification of objects, identification of their types, groups, species and varieties as well as assignment of objects, processes, states, signs, etc. to a particular classification unit. There are three main types of structural-substantive discourse taxonomic strategies which are observed in academic medical discourse: classification strategies, systematization strategies and typologization strategies. A detailed analysis was made of the classification strategies in order to identify its specific features and structural-substantive species represented in the form of various inductive and deductive schemes as well as to define its functions which include heuristic, pragmatic and didactic ones. In the analysis of this strategy, examples were taken from textbooks on biology, anatomy, pharmacology and pathological physiology. Data obtained from this analysis will become important in the pedagogical process, in delivering any given material so that it would not be scattered, chaotic or disjointed but represented as a definite system.
