This essay collection examines formulaic speech from the perspectives of text and discourse linguistics. The focus is on the usage patterns and functions of formulaic turns of phrase in different kinds of texts and in discourses extending beyond single texts. By linking formulaic speech to discourse linguistics, the work advances our understanding of the interface between text and discourse linguistics.
