An Introduction to Discourse Analysis

By Malcolm Coulthard

Book Overview

The central concern of this book is the analysis of verbal interaction or discourse. The first six chapters report and evaluate major theoretical advances in the description of discourse. The final chapters demonstrate how the findings of discourse analysis can be used to investigate second-language teaching and first-language acquisition and to analyse literary texts.
