Böcker av Jonathan Culpeper

While covering typical pragmatics topics, this book presents a new view on pragmatics: integrative pragmatics. It is comprehensive in its coverage, yet incorporates state-of-the-art research. Examples and case studies throughout connect theory with data, and illuminate how pragmatics phenomena and concepts are realised or tempered in English.

Using the Corpus of English Dialogues 1560-1760, in this book Culpeper and Kytoe offer a unique account of the linguistic features in speech-related genres of writing. Through this, they are able to provide a fascinating insight into what spoken interaction in Early Modern English might have been like.
