Routledge English Language Introductions cover core areas of language study and are one-stop resources for students.Assuming no prior knowledge, books in the Routledge English Language Introductions series offer an accessible overview of the subject, with activities, study questions, sample analyses, commentaries and key readings - all in the same volume. The innovative and flexible 'two-dimensional' structure is built around four sections - introduction, development, exploration and extension - which offer self-contained stages for study. Each topic can also be read across these sections, enabling the reader to build gradually on the knowledge gained. Pragmatics and Discourse: * covers all the core areas of the subject: context, co-text, speech acts, conversation, cooperative principle and politeness* draws on a wealth of real texts, from TV programmes such as Who Wants to be a Millionaire and Dalziel and Pascoe , to mobile text messages and Winnie the Pooh * provides classic readings from the key names in the discipline, from Sperber and Wilson to Hoey, Wodak and Gumperz.
