Discourse and Creativity examines the way different approaches to discourse analysis conceptualize the notion of creativity and address it analytically. It includes examples of studies of creativity from a variety of traditions and examines the following key areas, how people interpret and use discourse, the processes and practices of discourse production, discourse in modes other than written and spoken language, and the relationship between discourse and the technologies used to produce it.
Discourse and Creativity combines a forward-thinking and interdisciplinary approach to the topic of creativity; this collection will be of great value to students and scholars in applied linguistics, stylistics, and communication studies.

Jones: Discourse and Creativity Blurb
Bringing together the perspectives of thirteen internationally renowned scholars, this ground-breaking new collection examines two of the most exciting areas in the interdisciplinary study of language and communication. Exploring how different approaches to discourse analysis conceptualise the notion of creativity, each chapter sets out how creativity will be defined and approached.
This book is divided into four parts - literary creativity, workplace creativity, multimodal creativity and creativity and technology - and examines the following key ideas:
·        How people interpret and use discourse
·        The processes and practices of discourse production
·        Discourse in modes other than written and spoken language
·        The relationship between discourse and the technologies used to produce it
Discourse and Creativity combines a forward-thinking and interdisciplinary approach to the topic of creativity; this collection will be of great value to students and scholars in applied linguistics, stylistics, and communication studies.
