This book uses corpus and multimodal methods to present a
comparative study of three major Canadian TV crime series,
Flashpoint (2008-2010), Motive (2013-2015) and 19-2 (2014-2016),
paying special attention to cinematic techniques. Following an
overview of the methodology and the Canadian cultural milieu of the
study, the author approaches the three series as complex cultural
and linguistic productions that depend heavily on a national
appropriation of a genre whose popularity is growing
internationally. The book investigates the verbal, nonverbal and
paraverbal strategies employed by each production to create the
patterns that make this genre appealing to a variety of audiences,
and uncovers some of the psychological processes at work in
contemporary Canadian TV crime serials. This book will be of
interest to scholars in fields including Corpus Linguistics,
Multimodal Studies, Canadian Studies, Media and Communication
Studies, and Specialised Discourse.
