Learning outcomes
|
On this course we will take account of the various meanings that the term "discourse" has across the social sciences and humanities, but we shall primarily be concerned with discourse seen as language use as a social practice. This means that we shall look at the technical details of linguistic analysis, while also asking how different kinds of language use relate to society as a whole. The seminars will involve practical hands-on work with texts and transcripts. We will cover topics such as discourse, genre, text; narrative; conversation analysis; transitivity; modality; multimodality, adopting different perspectives: mediated discourse analysis, multimodal discourse analysis, corpus-assisted discourse analysis, etc.
