About this title

Synopsis

Discourse Studies is the largest, most complete, most diverse and only multidisciplinary introduction to the field. Now combined into a single volume, this essential handbook is fully updated from start to finish to cover contemporary debates and research literature, covers everything from grammar, narrative, argumentation, cognition and pragmatics to social, political and critical approaches, adds two new chapters on ideology and identity, and puts the student at the center, offering brand new features such as worked examples, sample analyses and recommended further reading.

Written and edited by world-class scholars in their fields, it is the essential, one-stop companion for any student of discourse analysis and discourse studies.
