This title offers a clearly written and comprehensive set of
definitions of key terms in discourse analysis, a core area of all
linguistics and language studies courses. Unlike many other areas
of linguistics, Discourse analysis is a complex field to define,
comprising a number of related but different theoretical and
methodological frameworks. Discourse can mean many different things
to different people. Students often find these multiple meanings to
be confusing and this book attempts to spell out and reconcile the
different approaches, to give a holistic picture of Discourse
Analysis as a branch of several disciplines. As well as comprising
a glossary of key terms, the book provides clear, illustrative
examples, a section on key thinkers and their ideas, and key texts
for further reading. This book is essential reading for students on
linguistics, language studies and media and cultural studies
courses who are engaging in discourse analysis. The Key Terms
series offers undergraduate students clear, concise and accessible
introductions to core topics. Each book includes a comprehensive
overview of the key terms, concepts, thinkers and texts in the area
covered and ends with a guide to further resources.
