Introduction
1.1 RATIONALE OF THE STUDY
In traditional linguistic research there are many works on text analysis, which focus only on the formal properties of language divorced from their communicative functions. Modern linguistic tendency of research focuses on discourse analysis, which is functional analysis of discourse involving the analysis of language in use. It can be said that language in the works of discourse analysis has been studied in both form and meaning in distinctive situations and contexts. Emphasizing as above, it is to be noted that discourse analysis, although a challenge to researchers and learners, has attracted much of their attention.
Nowadays Vietnam is step by step adhering to the development in the world, so it accepts, signs, ratifies or accedes many International Declarations and Conventions, among these a number of instruments on Human Rights. We all know that the field of human rights is very new in Vietnam and researches on it are in the beginning steps only. Due to the importance of human rights issues, they not only interest the people working in legal field, but also us those who are working in linguistic field. It might be agreed that human rights issues concern all.
The above-mentioned facts lead me to choosing this topic. Additionally, the study would be considerably helpful for my translating documents on Human Rights.
1.2 Aims and Objectives of the study
The objects of this study are International Declarations and International Conventions on Human Rights in their English versions and the distinction between them in
terms of discourse structure and some major linguistic features.
The study aims at:
- Having an analysis of discourse structure of International Declarations and International Conventions.
- Having remarks on some major linguistic features used in International Declarations and International Conventions on Human Rights.
- Finding distinctions between these two types of basic documents on Human Rights in terms of discourse structure and major linguistic features.
1.3 Scope of the study
Due to the scope of a minor M.A. thesis, 6 documents are selected for the investigation, 3 Declarations and 3 Conventions. The English language used in these documents are authentic, as they all are original English versions of these Declarations and Conventions, which are issued by the United Nations. These documents are named in the Sources of data (see page 43 below, please). Two of these (Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Convention on the Rights of the Child), which are most popular, are enclosed in the Annex.
Within the frame of a minor M.A. thesis, the analysis is confined to discourse structure and some major linguistic features used in these documents at initial steps only. The limitations of this work would be good starting points for further studies on the issue.
1.4 Methods of the study
Firstly, 6 documents are carefully selected. They are popular instruments on Human Rights with the topics, which are the common concerns for all people. The linguistic expressions in these documents are typical for International Declarations and International Conventions on Human Rights.
Secondly, these documents will be then described, analyzed in terms of discourse structure and some major linguistic features.
Thirdly, the data obtained will be dealt with in order to reach some conclusions on typical similarities and differences between Declarations and Conventions on Human Rights in terms of discourse structure and some linguistic features, and necessary comments should be made accordingly.
The approach to the study is inductive, based on a collection of sample documents.
1.5 ORGANIZATION OF THE STUDY
The thesis is comprised of 5 chapters. Chapter 1 and Chapter 2, like those of any thesis, are Introduction and Literature Review telling about the purposes and reasons of the topic choosing; aims and objectives; scope; methods and theoretical background of the study. They are usual necessary parts of every paper. Chapter III explores the discourse structure and some major linguistic features of International Declarations on Human Rights. In the initial organization, Chapter IV would explore the discourse structure and some major linguistic features of International Conventions on Human Rights and there should be a separate Chapter Chapter V for comparison. But to do this would look cumbersome, therefore, in this paper Chapter IV explores the discourse structure and some major linguistic features of International Conventions in comparison with those of International Declarations to avoid repetition. However, there still needs be Chapter V, where findings of overall similarities and differences between the International Declaration and the International Convention on Human Rights in terms of discourse structure and some major linguistic features are noted as the conclusion of the study. The diagrams of typical structures of the International Declaration and the International Convention on Human Rights are drawn at the end of the paper for readers to have an overall look on. Two of the most popular documents on Human Rights in the world and in Vietnam as well (a Declaration and a Convention) are enclosed in the Annex. It would be good for the readers to read through full original English versions of these documents.
