• Sommario/riassunto: Presenting a new theory of discourse, this book argues that our understanding of texts ultimately rests on our practices and on what we do. It will be welcomed by students and researchers looking for a form of discourse analysis that is explicit and methodical as well as socially and critically relevant.
