Abstract

The paper presents the results of a contrastive study that examines the expressions by which the authors from English and Serbian writing cultures reveal their attitudes towards the content they report in their academic research articles. These expressions are compared in respect to the linguistic forms in which they appear and to the frequency of their occurrence in academic articles of humanities. The results obtained by analyzing academic articles from the three academic disciplines indicate that more or less the same linguistic forms are used for expressing authors' attitudes in the articles written in both languages. However, their frequency is more evident in the articles written by Serbian writers, which means that these authors more readily express their attitudes than their English colleagues
