9.6 Clauses as Themes
Up to now we have been considering Theme-Rheme purely as a structure within
he cause, a sructure whose elements are therefore constituents of the clause; and
basically this is what itis. Buc ar the same time we find thematie organization
appearing in different guises throughout the system of the language, with mani
festations both above the clause and below it
Below the clause, We shall see in Chapter 6 thar both the verbal group and the A
‘nominal aroup incorporate the thematic prinejle iio theit own structure; rather
Jn the way that we found co be the case with imerrogative clauses, where the initial
