‘Discourse Analysis’ offers a fascinating exploration of how language shapes our social reality, from casual greetings to formal communications, revealing the hidden frameworks that govern human interaction.
This comprehensive guide examines the intricate relationship between language, social context, and power dynamics, demonstrating how seemingly simple exchanges can reflect complex cultural norms and hierarchies. The book progresses systematically from fundamental linguistic concepts to sophisticated analytical frameworks, combining traditional methodology with contemporary social theory.

Through real-world examples drawn from educational institutions, workplace environments, and digital platforms, readers learn to identify and interpret the layers of meaning embedded in various forms of communication. What makes this work particularly valuable is its practical approach to complex linguistic concepts, making them accessible to diverse audiences while maintaining academic rigor.
The book integrates insights from linguistics, sociology, and communication studies, addressing both traditional discourse analysis and emerging trends in digital communication. Whether examining conversation analysis, critical discourse theory, or multimodal communication, the text emphasizes practical applications while acknowledging ongoing debates in the field, particularly regarding the relationship between language and power in our rapidly evolving communication landscape.
