Summary

Introduction

The current study is the multimodal analysis of the textbook discourse which includes different semiotic modes. Multimodality is the convergence of different semiotic modes present in a society/culture (Van Leeuwen, 2006). It is the relationship of different semiotic modes i.e. visual, verbal, music, dance, paintings, art, sculpture, etc. This study aims to investigate how verbal and visual aspects of a discourse integrate to create meanings. It aims at exploring how the cohesive devices contribute to establishing a link between the verbal and the visual aspects of discourse.
