News discourse became increasingly more important and reached wider audiences, with pamphlets as the first real mass media. Newspapers appeared, first on a weekly and then on a daily basis. And scientific news discourse in the form of letters exchanged between fellow scholars turned into academic journals. The papers in this volume provide state-of-the art analyses of these developments. The first part of the volume contains studies of early newspapers that range from reports of crime and punishment to want ads, and from traces of religious language in early newspapers to the use of imperatives. The second part is devoted to pamphlets and provides detailed analyses of news reporting and of impoliteness strategies. The last section is devoted to scientific news discourse and traces the early publication formats in their various manifestations. 410 0$aPragmatics & beyond ;$vv. 187. 606 $aJournalism$zGreat Britain$xHistory$vCongresses 606 $aJournalism$zGreat Britain$xLanguage$vCongresses 615 0$aJournalism$xHistory 615 0$aJournalism$xLanguage 676 $a072 686 $aHF 144$2rvk 701 $aJucker$b Andreas H$0176829 712 12$aCHINED (Conference) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958389103321 996 $aEarly modern English news discourse$94347578 997 $aUNINA
