Sisältö

This self-study option introduces the key approaches to discourse studies and how the concept of discourse is understood in each. The readings help make connections and comparisons between different research traditions in the study of language and the study of discourse. The readings will also provide real-life examples from a wide range of contexts and settings, from written to spoken to visual modality, to help students apply the theoretical concepts and understanding in their future studies.
