- Abstract
This article examines the thematic use of the semantic field of research and researchers in the Discussion Section of Spanish biomedical articles and English-Spanish translations. The article examines the double role for theme-rheme structure in the Discussion Section. The first one is to integrate the different rhetorical moves by signaling the move type they introduce. The other is to coincide the different voices in the text. The quantitative data and contextual analysis that suggests four points of contrast between the Anglo-American discourse style and the Spanish style are presented, as reveled in the comparable corpus of texts.
