Bücher der Reihe Hallesche Sprach- und Textforschung / Language and Text Studies / Recherches linguistiques et textuelles

This book shows how corpus linguistics and discourse analysis can benefit from the cooperation with a variety of other language-related disciplines, such as cognitive linguistics, appraisal theory, corpus stylistics and cultural studies.

This work is located in the field of contrastive media linguistics. Its goal is to examine the origin and nature of readers' comments by readers of French and English popular science magazines. The book dissects media content using text linguistic tools. Transmedial cultures are explored across time, platforms, languages, and editing houses.

This volume presents a range of academic approaches to genre emergence: text linguistics, conversation analysis, literary studies and media linguistics. The book aims to cover many different genres: print articles and advertisements, readers' comments, TV news shows and sitcom series, Wutreden, shitstorms, weblogs and erotic romance novels.

This volume reflects the discussion that emerged around the concepts "communication form", "communicative practice", "medium" and "genre". It combines theoretical contributions with empirical studies on public signage in cities, video games, self-tracking, the "National Geographic Magazine", and the personal blog.
