Analysing Discourse is an accessible introductory textbook to discourse analysis for all students and researchers working with real language data.
Students across disciplines rely on texts, conversations or interviews in their research. This book provides a step-by-step guide to using and investigating real language data, helping students and reasearchers to get the most out of their resources.
Drawing on a range of social theorists from Bourdieu to Habermas, as well as his own research, Norman Fairclough's book presents a form of language analysis with a consistently social perspective. His approach is illustrated by and investigated through a range of real texts, from written texts, to a TV debate about the monarchy and a radio broadcast about the Lockerbie bombing. The student-friendly book also offers accessible summaries, an appendix of example textsand a glossary of terms and key theorists.
