Abstract:

This volume explores the concepts of reference and identity in public
discourses. Its contributions study discourse-specific reference and labelling
patterns, both from a historical and present-day perspective, and discuss
their impact on self- and other-representation in the construction of
identity. They combine multiple methodological approaches, including
corpus-based quantitative as well as qualitative ones, and apply them to a
range of text types that are or were (intended to be) public, such as letters,
newspapers, parliamentary debates, and online communication in the form of
reader comments, discussion pages, and tweets. In addition to English, the
languages studied include Polish as well as European and Latin American
Spanish. The volume is aimed at researchers from different research paradigms
in linguistics and related disciplines, such as media communication or the
social and cultural sciences, who are interested in the interplay of reference
and identity.
