Description:
The course is designed to introduce participants to discourse analysis starting from its philosophical underpinnings to discussing recent developments and debates. Through a combination of lectures and practical sessions/workshops, we will cover various approaches to discourse analysis as well as the main principles and key literatures, illustrate analytic tools through the use of examples, and engage in hands-on analysis.
The course will engage you in evaluations of discourse-analytic approaches, and offer you the opportunity to develop some initial practical skills in applying discourse analysis. Rather than focusing in depth on a single approach, the course aims to develop a critical understanding of a range of these approaches and give you the confidence to select them appropriately. Finally, the course aims to provide a foundation to develop your skills further independently in the future.
