| Description | This investigation explores coherence in political speeches focusing on the construction of identities, related social roles and interpersonal and institutional relations. The author argues that consistent self-representation (together with other-presentation) based on referential strategies, such as the use of personal pronouns with anaphoric and deictic interpretation and nominal categorization, contributes to the perception of coherence on all planes of discourse. |
