Riassunto:

Pragmatics and Discourse:

• has been revised and reorganized to place more emphasis on pragmatics
• covers the core areas of the subject: Context and Co-Text, Speech Act Theory, Conversation Analysis, Exchange Structure, Interactional Sociolinguistics, the Cooperative Principle, Politeness Theory and extends to more applied areas: Corpus Linguistics and Communities of Practice, and Intercultural Pragmatics, Interlanguage Pragmatics and Language Learning
• draws on a wealth of texts: from Bend it Like Beckham and The Motorcycle Diaries to political speeches, newspaper extracts and blogs
• provides classic readings from the key names in the discipline, from Sperber and Wilson to Fairclough, Wodak and Gumperz
• is accompanied by a supporting website.

Key features of the new edition include: two new strands on Corpora and Communities and Culture and Language Learning; the merging of two strands on Context and Co-Text; new material from speaker-based cognitive linguistics; updated references; and fresh examples and exercises.

Written by an experienced teacher and author, this accessible textbook is an essential resource for all students of English language and linguistics.
