Identification of Discourse Moves of Online Pakistani Textbooks’ Blurbs

Abstract

The study examines genre-based features in academic and non-academic texts, focusing specifically on online textbook blurbs in Pakistan. While international research has studied rhetorical structures in book blurbs, limited attention has been given to Pakistani textbooks. This research analyzes blurbs across five disciplines: engineering, art & architecture, history and Pakistan studies, anthropology, and business & management.
