Summary: | Addressing the practicalities of research, and embracing the complexity and variety of written forms of language, this book grounds readers in a broad range of concepts, debates and relevant methods
focuses on both theoretical questions and the ‘how to’ of analysis; is loaded with practical activities and advice on the design and execution of research; highlights computer-mediated communication and new media discourse, from text messages and tweets to mobile phone novels and online encyclopedias; draws on data from international and multilingual communities. The perfect companion to Deborah Cameron's best-selling Working with Spoken Discourse, this book equips readers with practical and conceptual tools to ask questions about written discourse, and to analyse the huge variety of texts that make up our linguistic landscape. It is the essential guide for students of discourse analysis in linguistics, media and communication studies, and for social researchers across the social sciences. |
