The Handbook of Discourse Analysis
Blackwell Handbooks in Linguistics
Synopsis
The articles collected in "The Handbook of Discourse Analysis" comprise a foundational paradigm for discourse that is broad enough to support a variety of approaches, methods, and even definitions regarding discourse. The volume begins with an overview of discourse analysis, then moves through an examination of theoretical and methodological issues in the field. The book also presents a wide range of empirical studies of discourse as social and linguistic practice. Since many of the articles are interdisciplinary, the book concludes with an exploration of how different disciplines have become interested in discourse.

What Reviewers Are Saying
"This is an excellent handbook ? well-conceived and comprehensive. It will be a valuable resource for researchers and an absolute boon to teachers. The distinguished group of authors and the range of approaches represented makes it a fitting partner to Schiffrin's Approaches to Discourse Analysis, surely the best text around for a graduate introduction to discourse analysis. Together, the two constitute a formidable library of information for students and teachers alike." Helen Aristar-Dry, Eastern Michigan University
"Not only fascinating to read, but also a valuable reference resource for anyone working in, or with an interest in, discourse analysis." Discourse and Society
