Politics, Media and Campaign Language Australia’s Identity Anxiety


Free Download Stephanie Brookes, "Politics, Media and Campaign Language: Australia’s Identity Anxiety"
English | 2017 | ISBN: 1783085010, 1785272462 | EPUB | pages: 228 | 0.6 mb
Politics, Media and Campaign Language’ is an original, groundbreaking analysis of the story of Australian identity, told in Australian election campaign language. Stephanie Brookes argues that the story of Australian identity is characterized by recurring cycles of anxiety and reassurance, which betray a deep underlying feeling of insecurity. Introducing the concept of ‘identity security’, the book focuses on electoral language and demonstrates that election campaigns provide a valuable window into an overlooked part of Australia’s political and cultural history. ‘Politics, Media and Campaign Language’ reclaims Australian campaign speech and electoral history to tell the story of changing national values and priorities, and traces the contours of collective conversations about national identity.

Dementia and Language The Lived Experience in Interaction


Free Download Dementia and Language: The Lived Experience in Interaction
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1108424538 | 377 Pages | PDF | 2 MB
Bringing together cutting-edge research from a group of international scholars, this innovative volume examines how people with dementia interact with others in a variety of social contexts, ranging from everyday conversation to clinical settings. Drawing on methods from conversation analysis, it sheds light on how people with dementia accomplish relevant goals in interaction, as well as how changes in an individual’s discursive abilities may affect how conversationalists negotiate a world in common and continue to build their social relationships. By exploring interaction, this book breaks new ground in challenging the commonplace assumptions about what constitutes typical or atypical interactions in communication involving people with dementia, and further demonstrates the unique and creative strategies all speakers employ to facilitate better and more collaborative communication. It is essential reading for academic researchers and advanced students across sociolinguistics, interactional linguistics and conversational analysis, as well as health care practitioners.
