Abstract:

This accessible introductory textbook looks at the relationship between
politicians, the press and the public through the language they employ. Topics
include persuasion and "spin"; political metaphors; slogans, soundbites and
rhetorical figures; news interviewing techniques; humour, irony and satire.
Including texts and examples from the UK, Europe, US, India, Hong Kong and the
Middle East, the book covers recent events such as the 2016 US Presidential
election and the UK/Europe referendum and each unit contains a wide variety of
practical examples and student exercises with answer keys. This is the ideal
textbook for all introductory courses on language and politics and related
areas.
