Abstract:

A new edition of the bestselling textbook on discourse analysis, ideal
for undergraduate and graduate courses in linguistics and the broader
humanities and social sciences

Discourse Analysis explains how to collect and analyze spoken,
written, and multimodal language. Now in its fourth edition, this
popular textbook encourages students to think systematically and
critically about different sources of discourse to better understand
why spoken utterances and written texts have the meanings and uses
they do. Throughout the book, the authors offer real-life examples of
what discourse analysis can reveal about language, individuals,
groups, and society.

Student-friendly chapters describe discourse analysis with a goal of
helping students master the fundamental concepts of this important
area of linguistic research. Each chapter contains discussion
questions that encourage students to relate the material to their own
experiences, perform their own analyses, and consider important issues
in research design and research ethics. The new edition of Discourse
Analysis includes new discussion questions and ideas for research
projects, up-to-date supplementary readings, and expanded discussions
of corpus analysis methods, rhetorical legitimation, and social
identities. This textbook:

Teaches students to apply discourse analysis to answer research
questions in disciplines across the humanities and social sciences
Explains the complex relationships between discourse and various
aspects of context, such as linguistic structure, participants, and
prior discourse
Provides instructors with the flexibility to re-order chapters to meet
the needs of their students
Features exercises that incorporate extensive data from a variety of
languages and situations, including discourse in electronic media
Contains discussion questions, activities, research projects
suggestions, further readings, chapter summaries, and other
pedagogical features
Discourse Analysis, Fourth Edition, remains the ideal primary text for
undergraduate and graduate courses in language and linguistics,
language pedagogy, rhetoric and composition, and linguistic
ethnography.
