Analysing Show Cause Notices based on Applied Genre Analysis: a Multi- perspective Model

    The current research papers targets to investigate the genre of Show Cause notices (SCNs) based on theoretical approaches of genre analysis (Bhatia, 1999) and applied genre analysis (Bhatia, 2002). The reason to carry the said study is to identify the correlation among the textual, generic and social perspectives of Show cause notices. The corpus of ninety show cause notices was gathered and analyzed by applying applied genre analysis: a multi-perspective model of Bhatia (2002). The theoretical concerns (1999) directed towards the language use in four categories; purpose, products, process and players which are affirmed through the analytical analysis. The findings through qualitative and quantitative paradigms of research represented that purpose of the SCNs and lexico-grammatical features are the mainstreams to suggest the structure patterning in the text to shape such genre as highly formal, objective and professional. The social perspective reflected the participants in no personal terms, clear separate power zones and the addresser's cognitive understanding of communicative event and purpose.
