functional grammar

3 Functional Linguistics and translation studies
There are a number of important functional approaches to translation studies. Below are three major ones: (1) Hallidayan functionalism (M. Baker, B. Hatim, R. Bell, J. House) (2) German functionalism (K. Reiss, H. Vermeer, C. Nord, J. Holz-Manttari) (3) Pragmatics/Mixed functionalism (E-A. Gutt, L. Hickey)
4.1 Catford’s approach
2 Functional Linguistics
(6) Autonomist functionalism or generative functionalism (S. Kuno, E. Prince) (7) Functional grammar (S. Dik) (8) Text/Discourse grammar (van Dijk) (9) Mixed functionalism (S. Levinson)

2 Functional Linguistics
Functionalism in linguistics (1) Prague School Linguistics (V. Mathesius, R. Jakobson, J. Firbas, N. Trubetzkoy) (2) London School Linguistics (J. Firth) (3) Copenhagen School (L. Hjelmslev) (4) French functionalism (A. Martinet ) (5) Systemic Functional Linguistics (M. Halliday)

Note that different functional approaches are usually related in one way or another. E.g., Halliday was Firth's student and both were influenced by the Prague School. Both Halliday and Firth came from a European tradition influenced by de Saussure (esp Halliday) (as was the Prague School to some extent). What is clear is that there are influences rather than hierarchies involved here.

Halliday develops his theory of language from the study of syntax. From “a theory of syntax” to “a theory of language” Scale and Category Grammar, Systemic Grammar, Functional Grammar, Systemic Functional Grammar, Systemic Functional Linguistics
1 Introduction: Two approaches
Two approaches to translation studies: (1) Linguistics (formal vs functional) (2) Literary Translation studies as a science Translation as an art Translation as a practice and translation studies as a inter-discipline or a multidiscipline
3 Functional Linguistics and translation studies
Basic assumptions: Viewing language as a means of communication Emphasizing cognitive, socio-cultural, physiological factors Regarding semantic, pragmatic, functional patterning as central Doing analysis of texts and their contexts
Translation is translating meaning!
4 Hallidayan functionalism in translation studies
Background (neo-Firthian ) Developments of Hallidayan linguistics: four stages (1) 1961--: Scale and Category Grammar (2) 1966--: Systemic Grammar (3) 1970--: Functional Grammar (Systemic Functional Grammar) (4) 1978--: Systemic Functional Linguistics

2 Functional Linguistics
(10) Typological functionalism (W. Croft) (11) Role and Reference Grammar (R.D. van Valin, W.A. Foley) (12) West Coast Functionalism (T. Givón, P. Hopper, S. Thompson) (13) Cognitive linguistics (R.W. Langacker)
2 Functional Linguistics
Linguistics: (1) Formal linguistics (e.g. generative linguistics) (2) Functional linguistics (including Systemic Functional Linguistics, Pragmatics, Cognitive Linguistics, Discourse Analysis, Sociolinguistics, etc.)

3 Functional Linguistics and translation studies
As a practice, the history of translation is as old as that of the human society. In terms of theoretical approaches to translation studies, almost every linguistic theory/model has something to offer to the study of translation (as a theory or as a practice). Thus, one can say that there are more than 10 “functional linguistics” approaches to translation studies.
