Contributions in this book illustrate the many methods available
for researching language in context and for the analysis of
everyday text types. Each chapter highlights language as a resource
for the expression of meanings-a social semiotic resource. Text
analysis is used to reveal our capacity to formulate multiple
meanings for participation in different social practices-in
relationships, in work, in education and in leisure. The approach
is applied in text-based teaching and in the critical analysis of
public discourses. The texts come from different social spheres
including banking, language classes, senate hearings, national
tests and textbooks, and interior architecture. Text-based research
makes a major contribution to Critical Discourse Analysis. The
editors and authors of this book demonstrate the value of text
analysis for awareness of the role of language for accountable
citizenship and for teaching and learning. This book will be of
interest to anyone researching in the fields of language learning
and teaching, functional linguistics, multimodality, social
semiotics, systemic functional linguistics, text-based teaching,
and genre analysis, as well as literacy teachers and undergraduate
and postgraduate students of linguistics, media and education.
