Humans are social animals and through conversation, written communication, symbols and other expressions are constantly interacting with each other. Discourse: The Basics is an accessible and engaging introduction to the analysis of those interactions and the many forms, expressions and meanings they can take. The book draws on a range of international case studies and examples from literature, political speech, advertising and newspaper articles to address key questions such as: * What is discourse? * Why are there different approaches to understanding discourse? * What issues affect the collection and management of discourse? * How can discourse be represented? Including subject summaries, a glossary of key terms and suggestions for further reading, Discourse: The Basics is an essential guide for students in the Humanities and Social Sciences who are approaching discourse for the first time.
