Pragmatics of Computer-Mediated Communication: 9 (Handbooks of Pragmatics [HOPS]) - Tapa blanda

" On the whole, the volume offers a broad and interesting sample of CMC research and would be of interest to advanced students and researchers alike."Daria Dayter in: Linguist List 24.2982

The present handbook provides an overview of the pragmatics of language and language use mediated by digital technologies. Computer-mediated communication (CMC) is defined to include text-based interactive communication via the Internet, websites and other multimodal formats, and mobile communication. In addition to 'core' pragmatic and discourse-pragmatic phenomena the chapters cover pragmatically-focused research on types of CMC and pragmatic approaches to characteristic CMC phenomena.
