Doing Discourse Research
An Introduction for Social Scientists
- Reiner Keller - University of Augsburg, Germany
This book provides students with an excellent insight into the broad possibilities of investigation, the methods and the related research questions of discourse studies! I will highly recommend it to my students working on research papers on questions about the current state of art of language politics in the European Union and to students in other courses too.
'Discourse' and other forms of 'narrative' are very prominent at the moment, students and tutors need to understand these approaches and how to introduce levels of rigour into their research
Useful for the Masters students as well as PhD and Professional Doctoral candidates
A very helpful primer in what is a complex area
This is a text that I recommend as a 'must have' for any students pursuing Discourse Analysis in their research.
for those undertaking discourse research for the first time this book provides a simple structure in understanding how to collect data of this kind.
Handy and timely, rigourous but useable
I found this a very good starting point to understand discourse research.
A sound introduction to a useful research strategy.
