About this title

Synopsis

This two-volume set is the first international text to provide a comprehensive introduction to discourse studies - the analysis of the linguistic, social, cultural and cognitive properties of text and talk in their various contexts.

Designed specifically for students and other newcomers to this fascinating new `cross discipline′, these volumes offer a wealth of theoretical, descriptive and methodological information. The contributors, world-renowned scholars from many countries and cultures, have written in an accessible, pedagogical style that combines useful literature reviews and clear illustrations of analysis with the originality of their own theoretical perspectives.

These volumes are intended for use in upper-level undergraduate courses in most disciplines of the humanities and the social sciences, and especially for students of linguistics, literature, psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science and communication. They will also serve as vital resources for scholars in various disciplines.
