Cognitive Discourse Analysis: An Introduction - Tapa dura

Cognitive Discourse Analysis (Hardcover)

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Analysing language data systematically and looking closely at how people formulate their thoughts can reveal astonishing insights about the human mind. Without presupposing specific subject knowledge, this book gently introduces its readers to theoretical insights as well as practical principles for systematic linguistic analysis from a cognitive perspective. Drawing on Thora Tenbrink's twenty years' experience in both linguistics and cognitive science, this book offers theoretical guidance and practical advice for doing cognitive discourse analysis. It covers areas of analysis as diverse as attention, perspective, granularity, certainty, inference, transformation, communication, and cognitive strategies, using inspiring examples from many different projects. Simple techniques and tools are used to allow readers new to the subject easy ways to apply the methods, without the need for complex technologies, whilst the cross-disciplinary approach can be applied to a diverse range of research purposes and contexts in which language and thought play a role. The methodology of cognitive discourse analysis is introduced in this book by focusing on eight key areas of analysis. It provides readers new to the subject with simple techniques and tools, whilst allowing more experienced researchers to understand the principles quickly and adapt them for their own purposes.
