Language and Media : A Resource Book for Students

by Alan Durant, Marina Lambrou
Language and Media : A Resource Book for Students - Thryft
Language and Media : A Resource Book for Students - Thryft

Communication through media: A linguistic analysis.

Language and Media would be a great read for anyone interested in learning how language interacts with various forms of media. The book covers a range of topics including media genres and styles, social themes and consequences that arise from media language. It also employs a two-dimensional structure, allowing readers to build their knowledge gradually. The book includes real texts from different media like newspapers, speeches, blogs, emails, advertisements, and interview transcripts from television talk shows, providing a practical and comprehensive introduction to the topic.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
