Real Talk: Reality Television and Discourse Analysis in Action is
the first book to examine the discourse of reality television. It
provides state-of-the-art contextualization chapters on relevant
concepts and methods, followed by rigorous case studies of the
discourse practices that characterise a wide range of generic and
linguistic / cultural contexts, including dating shows in China and
Spain, docudramas in Argentina and New Zealand, and talent shows in
the UK and the USA. These are structured in relation to two key
themes: identity and aggression. This book will be essential
reading for upper-level undergraduates and graduates in
linguistics, discourse analysis and media studies, as well as for
practitioners in these fields.
