Feminizing Political Discourse
El rol de la dona en la societat ha canviat dràsticament en els últims cent anys. Les antigues regles que governaven la societat ja no són vàlides ni importants, ara que les dones participen en la creació de les noves. La qüestió és fins a quin punt el gènere encara condiciona la contribució de les dones amb la societat. Aquest llibre se centra en el gènere com a component social i com a factor en les estratègies lingüístiques emprades en els contextos relacionats amb ell. A partir d'aquestes diferents consideracions s'ha creat un nou model, en el que es distingeixen dos nivells diferents: un de situació i presentació, i un altre més important encara, que mostra com un element pot estar present en ambdós nivells. En aquest sentit, el gènere pot ser un determinant social del parlant però també un factor en la persuasió lingüística.
Discourse and Politics
Drawing on political discourse from a wide rage of settings and perspectives, this book is set to provide a descriptive and analytical tool for examining political discourse and will be welcomed by anyone interested in discourse analysis in general, and in political discourse in particular. Topics covered in this book include the study of political discourse styles, the use of rhetorical strategies (vocabulary, metaphors, quotations, parentheticals, etc.), the relation between political discourse and society (legitimization, the private-public interface, identities), role of gestures in relation to speech, methods for analysing political discourse, and how to build and exploit a political language corpus.
Exploring Language and Society with Big Data
As the legislative bodies of democratic nations, parliaments play a fundamental role in society. Consequently the linguistic practices observed in parliamentary discourse are of importance to everyone. This volume brings together leading researchers in areas of corpus linguistics, big data, parliamentary discourse, and historical linguistics in a truly interdisciplinary exploration at the vanguard of big data and corpus methods with the aim to investigate the intersection between linguistic and social change. Making use of both quantitative and qualitative methods, the studies included in this volume range from a focus on explicitly linguistic phenomena to topics that contribute to our understanding of language and society more generally. It breaks new ground in its critical reflection on the conceptual and methodological challenges of using large corpora of parliamentary discourse to study both the specialised language of parliamentary speech and the societies that the parliaments in question represent and govern.
Studies in Political Humour
If politics is a serious matter and humour a funny one, this volume investigates how and why the boundaries between the two are blurred: politics can be represented in a humorous manner and humour can have a serious intent. It shows how political humour can be manipulated in public debates or become an integral part of postmodern art.
New Insights into Gendered Discursive Practices
Con un discurso y un enfoque feminista orientado hacia las culturas mediáticas post-feministas, este volumen proporciona un conocimiento vanguardista de los métodos de análisis del discurso y cómo se aplican en el estudio del lenguaje y del género en distintos contextos. Las editoras del volumen, Antonia Sánchez Macarro y Ana Belén Cabrejas Peñuelas, reúnen a destacados analistas del discurso que hablan sobre temas como la construcción de las identidades de género en los (nuevos) medios de comunicación; las auto-representaciones de género y sexo de las jóvenes tanto en Internet como fuera de la red; y el análisis de las prácticas discursivas en el contexto de la educación superior. Este volumen servirá como inestimable herramienta para los investigadores y los estudiantes interesados en el lenguaje, el género y el análisis del discurso.

A Gender-based Approach to Parliamentary Discourse
Does gender condition politicians’ discourse strategies in parliament? This is the question we try to answer in A Gender-based Approach to Parliamentary Discourse: The Andalusian Parliament. This book, written by experts in the field of discourse analysis, covers key aspects of political discourse such as gender, identity and verbal and nonverbal strategies: intensification, enumerative series, non-literal quotations, pseudo-desemantisation, lexical colloquialisation, emotion, eye contact and time management. It provides a large number of examples from a balanced gender parliament, the Andalusian Parliament, and it focuses mainly on argumentation, since parliamentary discourse is above all argumentative. This book will prove invaluable to students and teachers in the field of discourse analysis, and more specifically of political discourse, and will also be very useful to politicians and anyone interested in communication strategies. As of January 2019, this e-book is freely available, thanks to the support of libraries working with Knowledge Unlatched.
