Doran, Martin & Herrington (2024: 183):
Accordingly, in this section we will outline field as a resource for construing phenomena. This perspective emphasises the resonance between field and the ideational metafunction in language, as well as offering tools that can link upwards with genre. The model presented here is that of Doran and Martin (2021). Under this model, phenomena can be construed dynamically as a set of activities oriented to some social action or they can be construed statically as relations among items.
Reviewer Comments:
[1] As previously explained, and as will be seen, this misunderstands field, 'what is happening' in terms of the culture, as the ideational language that realises it.
[2] To be clear, the "resonance" here derives from misinterpreting field as language.
[3] It will be seen that the 'dynamic' construals are semantic: sequences, and that the 'static' construals are lexical: meronymic and hyponymic taxonomies.
