Recenzii

An outstanding textbook that introduces students to a wide range of topics in discourse analysis. Written in a highly accessible style, it provides crystal clear explanations along with a wealth of fascinating examples of different discourse genres originating from diverse global contexts.
Over the last decade, my students have praised Paltridge's Discourse Analysis for being a very clear, engaging, and enjoyable read. The third edition of this seminal textbook embraces latest theoretical developments in the conceptualisation and study of language in context, providing clear and recent examples of how discourse shapes our world.
The book finds a good balance between theoretical and applied issues in discourse analysis. Each chapter thoroughly explores methodological and theoretical premises of discourse analytic approaches, tracing their evolution and developments, and giving priority to the current trends...The book's strength lies particularly in its ability to establish connections between discursive concepts and first and second language teaching environments...it is recommendable both for students and teachers encountering discourse analysis for the first time.
Students and researchers interested in discourse analysis should possess a copy of the book. Though the subtitle labels it an introduction to discourse analysis, the pages of the book provide simple yet shrewd coverage. Paltridge's book is an invaluable addition to the reading list of beginners and experienced discourse analysts.
Expanded and updated - still absolutely the best text for teaching and learning about discourse analysis. For the student, Paltridge is clear, comprehensive and - above all - lively and approachable. For the teacher, Paltridge provides unparalleled practical support: a perfectly-structured, semester-long curriculum, exercises, project topics, and teaching materials on the companion website. No-one could ask for more.
What is most commendable about this revised and expanded edition is the broadness of its scope, on the one hand, and precise focus on details, on the other. Paltridge uses real life examples of human encounters in contemporary contexts, thus making the text engaging for and relevant to today's teachers and students. A comprehensive contribution to the educational literature on discourse analysis, the book is equally appealing to beginners and experienced discourse analysts.
An extremely welcome addition to the growing number of books devoted to this increasingly important area. It strikes an excellent balance between both spoken and written discourses, as well as between theoretical and applied studies [.] There is every prospect that Paltridge will become a standard text for undergraduates and graduates studying discourse analysis for the first time.
One of the best books out there on ''discourse analysis.' Highly recommended for post graduate students.
