on discourse analysis
you might try
W. Bodine, ed., Discourse Analysis of Biblical Literature: what it is and
what it offers. Scholars Press, 1995, especially an introductory article:
"Functional Grammar, Hebrew and Aramaic: an integrated, textlinguistic
approach to syntax" 77-102.
There is also a volume R. Bergen, ed. Biblical Hebrew and Discourse
Analysis, SIL, 1994. A nice article surveying the contributions in that
volume is provided by van der Merwe.
on schneider, he collapes/oversimplifies semantics and pragmatics into one
level, anyway, so you can save yourself some german time for the moment.
