Evaluation is the linguistic expression of speaker/writer opinion, and has only recently become the focus of linguistic analysis.

In this book, Monika Bednarek addresses the need for a systemic analysis of television discourse and characterization within linguistics and media studies.

The analyses focus on a diverse range of texts from very different contexts, using analytic techniques that are based on the latest research in...
