This is a guide to the various frameworks, concepts, and methods available for the analysis of discourse within linguistics. It compares six dominant approaches to discourse analysis: speech act theory, pragmatics, ethnomethodology, interactional sociolinguistics, ethnography of communication, and variation theory.

The author not only considers each approach from several standpoints but she also illustrates them through extensive applications to a variety of concrete social and linguistic problems facing discourse analysts.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding.

    Truly outstanding resource. It's really many in one: it covers a great deal of approaches to discourse that would otherwise take many volumes to read. I was glad to have purchased it and will look out for more from Schiffrin in the future.

    2.0 out of 5 stars actually pretty bad

    I gotta give Deborah SOME credit; compiling the research and writing a book like this is no easy task. HOWEVER! If your intention is to learn about discourse analysis/how to do discourse analysis, good luck. I can't quite put my finger on why this book is so inaccessible (writing style, poor explanation of material/concepts(?)), but I would hope there is a better alternative out there.

    I know, I know, Discourse is all about Schiffrin, I mean- she wrote the book! However, this book is now outdated and is far too long-winded and meandering. I suggest a re-write, Dr. Schiffrin.
