Opis

This series creates a space for innovative scholarship examining the ways language functions as a powerful meaning-making resource for constructing identities, managing relationships and building communities. Grounded in new, data-driven methodologies, quantitative and qualitative, and engaging a diverse range of communicative and textual practices, the series embraces work from variationist sociolinguistics through to discourse studies, linguistic anthropology and social semiotics. Monographs and edited volumes are welcomed, as is any work that explicitly situates language in its political, economic and cultural contexts, and/or intersects with other modes of communication such as visual images, material culture, space/place, and nonverbal communication.

Recenzje

'Palliative care conversations profoundly captures the interactional dynamics and situated intricacy of clinician-patient communication in palliative care, which renders the book suitable for not only linguists but also clinical practitioners and policymakers in healthcare.'

Andy Lok Chung Hui in: Language in Society 50 (2021)
