Introducing the key questions and challenges faced by the
researcher of digital discourse, this book provides an overview of
the different methodological dimensions associated with this type
of research. Bringing together a team of experts, chapters guide
students and novice researchers through how to conduct rigorous,
accurate, and ethical research with data from a wide range of
online platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube,
and online dating apps. Research Methods for Digital Discourse
Analysis focuses on the key issues that any digital discourse
analyst must consider, before tackling more specific topics and
approaches, including how to work with multilingual or multimodal
data. Emphasizing concrete, practical advice and illustrated with
plentiful examples from research studies, each chapter introduces a
new research dimension for consideration, briefly exploring how
other discourse analysts have approached the topic before using an
in-depth case study to highlight the main challenges and provide
guidance on methodological decision-making. Supported by a range of
pedagogical tools, including discussion questions and annotated
further-reading lists, this book is an essential resource for
students and any researcher new to analyzing digital discourse.
Founded in 1961, Studia Hibernica is devoted to the study of the
Irish language and its literature, Irish history and archaeology,
Irish folklore and place names, and related subjects. Its aim is to
present the research of scholars in these fields of Irish studies
and so to bring them within easy reach of each other and the wider
public. It endeavours to provide in each issue a proportion of
articles, such as surveys of periods or theme in history or
literature, which will be of general interest. A long review
section is a special feature of the journal and all new
publications within its scope are there reviewed by competent
authorities.
What did Jesus think of himself? How did he face death? What were
his expectations of the future? In this volume, now in paperback,
internationally renowned Jesus scholar Dale Allison Jr. addresses
such perennially fascinating questions about Jesus. The acclaimed
hardcover edition received the Biblical Archaeology Society's "Best
Book Relating to the New Testament" award in 2011.
Representing the fruit of several decades of research, this major
work questions standard approaches to Jesus studies and rethinks
our knowledge of the historical Jesus in light of recent progress
in the scientific study of memory. Allison's groundbreaking
alternative strategy calls for applying what we know about the
function of human memory to our reading of the Gospels in order to
"construct Jesus" more soundly.
