Description
The chapters of the book are geared towards comprehending human interactions, expounding dialogism, challenging dominant narratives, and in the meantime, deconstructing misinformation and power structures prevalent in text and talk. In its essence, the book is multidisciplinary, as it employs various critical approaches, rich conceptual frameworks, and sound methodologies from a variety of schools of thought and disciplines to explain the interplay between language and power, humor and laughter, literature and cinema, as well as poetry and meaning-creation.The contributors, all of whom are avid researchers in the field of discourse and cultural studies, elucidate the tremendous power of discourse and detail its potential implications and ramifications in contemporary times; they disambiguate the nuances of some interrelated and subsidiary notions such as text and context, rhetoric and the process of writing, communication and silence, identity and culture, media and representation, to mention but a few.
