First Published in 1987. This book provides an outline for a descriptive basis for the study of human communication by advocating a pragmatic approach to communication, based on the study of language use in context. It covers work on verbal communication in many disciplines, and represents a variety of underlying assumptions and methods of analysis. This book blends both European and North American scholarship for a broadly focused analysis in a form suitable for beginners and those looking to expand their established understanding.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"...an important resource for students of pragmatics, offering an overview of research which may fall outside an individual researcher's chosen methodology but is, in fact, shown to be quite relevant...produces useful criticisms of each methodology examined, identifies important considerations for future research, and advances the debate over what pragmatics is and what it should be."
-American Scientist
"Overall, Haslett's book makes several valuable contributions to the discourse analytical literature. Particularly noteworthy are her excellent integration of numerous publications, her emphasis on the primacy of text, and her valuable methodological recommendations."
