Short description:

Revised and updated throughout, the new edition of Discourse Analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the major approaches to and methodological tools used in discourse analysis.

Long description:

Routledge English Language Introductions cover core areas of language study and are one-stop resources for students. Assuming no prior knowledge, books in the series offer an accessible overview of the subject, with activities, study questions, sample analyses, and commentaries.


Revised and updated throughout, the new edition of Discourse Analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the major approaches to and methodological tools used in discourse analysis. This textbook:



  • introduces both traditional perspectives on the analysis of texts and talk as well as more recent approaches that address technologically mediated and multimodal discourse

  • incorporates practical examples using real data, now revised to include more diverse examples from a wider range of countries

  • includes a revised final section to highlight recent research with case studies showcasing examples of how scholars used the principles illustrated in the book

  • is accompanied by online support material with additional student activities, summaries, explanations, and useful links

Other features of the new edition include updated references and a wider range of material from social media that includes TikTok and other more recently popular platforms. Written by an experienced teacher and author, this accessible textbook is essential reading for all students of English language and linguistics.
