Opis

This book is a tribute to Malcolm Coulthard, who has been remarkably active and influential across a wide range of English Language Studies. He is particularly well-known for his pioneering work in spoken and written discourse analysis and most recently, for his work in forensic linguistics. This collection of commissioned pieces by international linguists is dedicated to the man and his achievements and provides a showcase for developments in applied discourse studies. The collection as a whole contains original research on descriptions, with applications to forensic, gender and literary studies. It should be useful for scholars of English language and discourse studies.
