Communicative-Rhetorical Moves in Research Article Introductions: A Genre Analysis within Swales' Model (2004) (A Case Study of 8 Journals of Quran and Hadith Sciences Genre)
In discourse analysis discipline, the analysis of research articles genre in recent decades has attracted special attention. In the meantime, studying the introduction of a research article, which serves as a roadmap and preview for understanding the next sections of the article, as well as a very important criterion for evaluating the whole article, has enjoyed the most genre-based analysis in most academic and specialized disciplines. However, the field of Quran and Hadith sciences is one of the genres that there is no study upon the introduction of its research articles within the genre-based discourse analysis. Therefore, the present article, using a descriptive-analytical method based on the Swales' model (2004) deals with the rhetorical structured and communicative moves in the introduction of 80 research articles published during the year from 1395 to 1399 in prestigious research journals in the field of Quran and Hadith sciences. In fact, this study, within genre analysis focusing on the genre moves of the article introductions has got two main functions: first, how the authors of research articles in the field of the Quran and Hadith sciences introduce their work in the introduction and to what extent do they follow the criteria for writing a good introduction based on a theoretical research model? And the second goal is to what extent in this particular genre, we will see variation in journals of a single field. The results of the present study, which can be both useful for improving the quality of the authors' research article introductions and for evaluating this particular genre by research journals reviewers, indicate that some authors of this genre are not sufficiently aware of the genre structure and rhetorical communicative moves is the article introductions, which has led to a complete lack of compliance with the theoretical model of the research.
