Abstract:

Discourse topics are a frequently mentioned but rarely operationalised concept
in linguistics. Taking a text linguistic approach and defining discourse
topics as clusterings of concepts, this book examines and compares methods for
investigating topic boundaries, topic identification and topic development.
The first book to be devoted to topics in extended discourse, <i>Discourse
Topics</i> examines topics in several genres and generates new insights into
the nature of discourse topics that challenge the status quo. It is essential
reading for researchers in linguistics, discourse analysis, natural language
processing and psychology whose work concerns topics.
