Possibly, this is one of the reasons why Swiss German dialects have been investigated thoroughly on various linguistic levels. Nevertheless, natural speech intonation has, until today, not been examined systematically. The aim of this study is to analyze natural Swiss German fundamental frequency behavior according to linguistic, paralinguistic, and extralinguistic variables, using statistical tests against the backdrop of detecting dialect-specific patterns as well as c 410 0$aStudies in language variation ;$v10. 606 $aGerman language$xDialects$zSwitzerland 606 $aGerman language$xIntonation 607 $aSwitzerland$xLanguages 615 0$aGerman language$xDialects 615 0$aGerman language$xIntonation. 676 $a437/.9494 686 $aGD 1800$2rvk 700 $aLeemann$b Adrian$0857085 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974571803321 996 $aSwiss German intonation patterns$94346747 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04018nam 22007335 450 001 9910337704503321 005 20250610110612.0 010 $a9783030004972 010 $a303000497X 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-00497-2 035 $a(CKB)4100000006674973 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5526663 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-00497-2 035 $a(Perlego)3493629 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC29093073 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000006674973 100 $a20180926d2019 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aPost-Truth and Political Discourse /$fby David Block 205 $a1st ed. 2019. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Pivot,$d2019. 215 $a1 online resource (135 pages) 311 08$a9783030004965 311 08$a3030004961 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aChapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Post-truth Ruminations -- Chapter 3: Political Discourses, Corrupt Discourses -- Chapter 4: Conclusion. 330 $aIn this book David Block draws on analytical techniques from Critical Discourse Studies to critically investigate truth, truths, the propagation of ignorance and post-truth. Focusing on corrupt discourses and agnotology, he explores the role of anti-intellectualism, emotion and social media in the cultural creation, legitimisation and dissemination of ignorance. While encompassing analysis of discourses on Donald Trump, Brexit, climate change and the Alt-Right, Block furthers our understanding of this global phenomena by providing a revealing analysis of political communications relating to corruption scandals involving the Spanish conservative party. Through an innovative theoretical framework that combines critical discourse and discourse historical approaches with nuanced political analysis, he uncovers the rhetorical means by which esoteric truths and misleading narratives about corruption are created and demonstrates how they become, in their turn, corrupt discourses. This original work offers fresh insights for scholars of Discourse Analysis, Sociolinguistics, Politics, Cultural and Communication Studies, and will also appeal to general readers with an interest in political communication and Spanish politics. David Block is ICREA Research Professor in Sociolinguistics at the University of Lleida, Spain. He has published on a variety of language-related topics, which he examines drawing on scholarship in Marxist political economy and sociology. His books include Social Class in Applied Linguistics (2014) and Political Economy and Sociolinguistics (2018). 606 $aLinguistics$xMethodology 606 $aCommunication in politics 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aKnowledge, Sociology of 606 $aEthnology 606 $aCulture 606 $aResearch Methods in Language and Linguistics 606 $aPolitical Communication 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aPolitical Sociology 606 $aSociology of Knowledge and Discourse 606 $aRegional Cultural Studies 615 0$aLinguistics$xMethodology. 615 0$aCommunication in politics. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aKnowledge, Sociology of. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aResearch Methods in Language and Linguistics. 615 24$aPolitical Communication. 615 24$aSociolinguistics. 615 24$aPolitical Sociology. 615 24$aSociology of Knowledge and Discourse. 615 24$aRegional Cultural Studies. 676 $a320.9049 676 $a306.44 700 $aBlock$b David$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061610 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337704503321 996 $aPost-Truth and Political Discourse$92519351 997 $aUNINA
