Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book draws upon genre fiction studies, forensic linguistics, and media studies to investigate the overlap between crime fiction conventions and the writing of missing persons appeals to the public. This book is basedon a pilot project funded by the Aston Institute for Forensic Linguistics, entitled 'Genre, Pacing, and Narrative in Police Missing Persons Appeals' (Aug 2021-Nov 2022).The authors identify a missing persons appeal as a literary and linguistic genre in its own right and illustrate the problems that arise when the appeals writing process goes unregulated or unstudied: there is currently little-to-no official, national police guidance, regulation, or standard procedure for writing a missing persons appeal in the UK. The authors also identify opportunities for improving the writing and delivery of appeals by further (and more intentionally) applying crime fiction conventions, narrative devices, and pacing, to maximise audience reach and increase the chances of recovering a missing person. This book will be of particular interest to genre fiction scholars (particularly those interested in crime fiction), forensic linguists, and media studies scholars.…

Hardback. Condición: New. Explores the social and cultural history of bureaucratization in 19th-century Britain and France via the evolving literary portrayal of office life.Literary critics have long cited the clerk in 19th-century literature as an emblem of a nascent lower middle class, or of shifting gender roles in the world of work. Moreover, there is growing critical interest in the influence of rapidly evolving organizational systems and data networks on this period's culture. By refocusing on the point at which these interests meet - the office - The Rise of Office Literature plays a synthesizing role, identifying this workplace as a point of convergence between the abstract and the quotidian, between structures and workers.By exploring the history of 'office literature' - a 'forgotten' nineteenth-century literary genre whose exemplars focus primarily on office life - Daniel Jenkin-Smith argues that the portrayal of new labour practices, intellectual forms and bureaucratic technologies in English and French literature served to problematize existing narrative conventions, while also enabling new developments in literary aesthetics. Office literature's unique position - between the ongoing process of nineteenth-century bureaucratization and the rapidly evolving realist and satirical traditions of this period's literature - means that it offers an especially insightful perspective onto the interrelation of aesthetic, intellectual, economic and social history.…
