This book uniquely integrates discourse analysis and corpus
linguistics to examine representations of the self and other within
lifestyle migration. With a focus on British migrants living in the
Ariege, south-west France, the study identifies common positioning
strategies to demonstrate links between wider themes and local
identity construction. Drawing on positioning theory and related
analytical tools, Lawson is the first to integrate a corpus of
British media texts with online and face to face discourse. The
book presents a detailed identification of ideologies relating to
being British in France, and the linguistic analysis demonstrates
how this value system is both taken up and habitually manipulated
within local discourse as a resource for negotiating a particular
kind of identity. Using social theory to underpin the analysis of
positioning strategies in interaction, the book enhances our
understanding of the complex possibilities within processes of
self-identification in a migration context.
