For the first time this catalogue is coming out under the the Bloomsbury name instead of the Continuum imprint. A big change, but a step forward. I wanted to give you some background to this rebranding. In 2008, Bloomsbury decided to invest in building a new academic division. Growth since that decision was taken has been very rapid: we now publish around 1,100 titles each year, with a particularly big presence in the Humanities and Social Sciences, and our backlist comprises some 20,000 titles. The purchase of from Continuum Books in 2011 was a key part of this growth. We believe we are stronger as a group, which is why we have taken the strategic decision to adopt the Bloomsbury name for all academic titles that we publish. With effect from 1st September 2012, all new Continuum titles will be published under the Bloomsbury brand. etter The values of Continuum which you have appreciated over the years are already integral to the larger entity that is L Bloomsbury. Much has changed over the past 12 months, but the linguistics team remain as committed to our authors and to publishing the same high quality books. We want to publish books that get people talking, that tell a story, and move scholarship onwards. We want to publish books that people love. Publishing in Print and Digital Bloomsbury leads the way in digital publishing, for example with the launch of the Churchill Archive in September 2012. Providing an essential research and teaching tool, it has made more than 800,000 pages of key historical documents from the twentieth century available online for the first time. We also have Drama Online coming in spring 2013: a comprehensive collection of the most studied, performed and critically acclaimed plays from the last two and half thousand years. Please take a moment to go to www.churchillarchive.com and www.dramaonlinelibrary.com. In due course, we hope to bring this level of digital innovation to the linguistics list. Highlights This new catalogue features great books, new and old. From our core textbook Linguistics: An Introduction (p.3) to brand new books in our cutting-edge semiotics series such as Semiotics of Drink and Drinking (a subject close to our hearts! p.17). We’re launching new editions of Paltridge’s Discourse Analysis (p.7) and Elizabeth Winkler’s Understanding Language (p.3), and announcing An Introduction to Interaction (p.6), a major new conversation analysis textbook. Labov: A Guide for the Perplexed (p.4) and Analyze Anything (p.3) are two new books that come lavished by praise. The proof of course, is in the reading: check the previews, check our blog and most of all, pick up the phone/ send me an email. New Website Finally, it’s great to be able to announce the launch of a new global Bloomsbury website: www.bloomsbury.com. This site brings together everything under the Bloomsbury Group, including Continuum, Berg, Methuen Drama, Arden Shakespeare, T&T Clark, Bristol Classical Press, and A&C Black titles. The site features enhanced academic functionality such as online previews, digital inspection copies, textbook companion sites and online resources. Go to www.bloomsbury.com/academic for more information — or email me and I’ll fill you in. We hope you enjoy reading our latest catalogue and are as pleased with this new cohort of books as we are.

Specifically, the work explores “fatwas” and “other” similar documents as well as “guidance” documents (referred to as FOGs) that were disseminated in March–April 2020 on the internet and social media platforms for British Muslim consumption. We confine our materials to FOGs produced only in English. Our study takes its cue from the notion that the existence of a variety of documents created a sense of foggy ambiguity for British Muslims in matters of religious practice. From a linguistic angle, the study seeks to identify (a) the underlying reasons behind the titling of the documents; and (b) the construction of discourses in the documents. Our corpus-assisted critical discourse analysis (CA-CDA) found noticeable patterns that hold symbolic capital in the fatwa register. We also found that producers of “other” documents imitate the fatwa register in an attempt to strengthen the symbolic capital of their documents.

    G&L (PRINT) ISSN 1747–6321 Gender G&L (ONLINE) ISSN 1747–633X and Language Editorial In this editorial we reflect on and celebrate the first five years of the journal, provide our annual profile of contributors, announce important changes to the editorial structure, and describe some up-coming changes to the journal to respond to its continuing expansion and development. Five years of Gender and Language Although the journal Gender and Language has been publishing now for five years, the earliest discussions of the journal occurred over a decade ago. When a number of us first discussed the proposal for the journal at the International Gender and Language Association (IGALA) conference in Lancaster in 2002, there was a debate there that echoes a long-standing one in women and gender studies – the debate about whether a separate journal would constitute a significant forum for work otherwise not fully represented, or a ghetto. Ultimately most of us decided the former. It is worth continuing to think about which kinds of articles on language and gender are submitted to or published in this journal, and which are submitted and published elsewhere. However, one of the significant accomplishments of the journal is creating space, in the kind of peer-reviewed format that counts most heavily in hiring, promotion, and tenure, for scholarship on language and gender. Our journal alone now publishes about ten articles a year, and that number is about to increase (see up-coming changes, below). In our early discussions about the journal, some scholars noted that if we were to start such a journal, we needed to use it to raise the bar on language and gender scholarship.

  • Matters of Opinion: Talking About Public Issues Greg Myers Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 0521793122 - Matters of Opinion: Talking about Public Issues Greg Myers Frontmatter More information Matters of Opinion When a government announces that it will ‘listen to the public’, we are reminded that public opinion, and not just voting, underpins democ- racy. Matters of Opinion offers an interesting new insight into ‘public opinion’ as reported in the media, asking where these opinions actually come from, and how they have their effects. Drawing on the analysis of conversations from focus groups, phone-ins, and broadcast inter- views with members of the public, Greg Myers argues that we must go back to these encounters, asking questions such as what members of the public thought they were being asked, whom they were talking as, and whom they were talking to. He suggests that people don’t carry a store of opinions, ready to tell strangers; they use opinions in order to get along with other people, and how they say things is as important as what they say. Engaging and informative, this book illuminates cur- rent debates on research methods, the public sphere, and deliberative democracy, on broadcast talk, and on what it means to participate in public life. greg myers is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Linguistics and Modern English Language, University of Lancaster, where he has taught a variety of courses on text analysis and the language of the media since 1989. His previous books include Writing Biology: Texts in the Social Construction of Scientific Knowledge (1990), Words in Ads (1994), and Ad Worlds: Brands, Media, Audiences (1999), and he has published in a wide variety of journals.

  • Conference Handbook
    7th New Zealand Discourse Conference Massey University, Wellington 3-6 December, 2019 Conference Handbook Conference Committee Dr. Tony Fisher, Massey University Dr. Julia De Bres, Massey University Dr. Emily Greenback, Victoria University of Wellington Dr. Shelly Dawson, Victoria University of Wellington Dr. Jesse Pirini, Victoria University of Wellington About the NZ Discourse Conference The New Zealand Discourse Conference was initiated by Professor Allan bell and Dr Philippa Smith at the Auckland University of technology in 2007. Over the next decade the conference was hosted by AUT every two years, where it quickly grew in popularity becoming a major event in the international linguistics calendar. In 2017, it was decided that the conference would no longer be tied to a single institution, but would instead be hosted at a different NZ university every two years. Massey in Wellington has the privilege of being the first university after AUT to host the NZ discourse conference. The conference boasts an impressive array of past plenary speakers, including Margaret Wetherell, Alison Lee (2007), and Alan Bell (2007, 2013), Sigrid Norris (2007, 2017), Rick Iedema, Cynthia Hardey and David Grant (2009), Teun van Dijk and Monica Heller (2011), Cindy Gallios and Adam Jaworsky (2013), Ruth Wodak, Bob Hodge and Donal Matheson (2015), Michael Bamberg, David Barton and Theo van Leeuwen (2017). In 2019 we are delighted to host plenary talks by Paul Baker, Brian W. King and Janet Holmes – all of whom address the conference for the first time. In 2021, the New Zealand Discourse Conference continues its journey south to be hosted by Canterbury University in Christchurch.
