In its first edition, winner of the 2016 Edward Sapir Book Prize from the Society for Linguistic Anthropology of the American Anthropological AssociationDiscourse Analysis Beyond the Speech Event introduces a new approach to discourse analysis. In this innovative work, Wortham and Reyes argue that discourse analysts should look beyond fixed speech events and consider the development of discourses over time. Drawing on theories and methods from linguistic anthropology and related fields, this book is the first to present a systematic methodological approach to conducting discourse analysis of linked events, allowing researchers to understand not only individual events but also the patterns that emerge across them.This new edition: Draws on theories and methods from linguistic anthropology and related fields; Presents the first systematic methodological approach to doing discourse analysis of linked events; Provides easy-to-use tools and techniques for analyzing discourse both within and across events; Offers transparent procedures and clear illustrations to show how the approach can be applied to analyze three types of data: ethnographic, archival, and new media; Includes a new chapter focusing on the discourse analysis of contemporary nationalist new media data.Updated and revised for the second edition, this book is essential reading for advanced students and researchers working in the area of discourse analysis.

"Historias breves y sorprendentes que provienen del pasado y del futuro, contadas como quien lanza las cartas de un tarot, para atrapar a sus lectores con sucesos que pueden parecer a veces fant sticos, incre bles, aunque mantienen siempre la pinta de ser verdades, quiz s secretos de una familia, un poblado, o de toda la especie humana. No es casual que haya una mujer protagonista velando suspicazmente en cada p gina, incluso a veces muchas: esp an desde atr s de la pared de un convento o sobre la copa de un rbol. Son veinti n momentos donde la mujer se rebela contra los encierros y las clasificaciones de g nero tradicionales. Aqu gobiernan --desean, muerden, sue an-- las mujeres y sus dobles, sus fantasmas, entre risa y llanto, entre burlas y veras". (Ileana lvarez) Del pr logo: "Hay muchas, much simas mujeres en la literatura de esta escritora, aunque tal vez s lo haya una, una nica y verdadera mujer, tan selv tica, oce nica y lunar, tan l gica, realista y sabia, tan fuerte, serena y emprendedora, y tan fr gil, tan sensual, tan so adora, que sus encarnaciones son inagotables y su conocimiento total, una quimera". (Jos Luis Morales) Opiniones: "La poes a aromatiza estos relatos, en los que la poeta y escritora, ngela Reyes, desteje la realidad de la mujer, la sit a en un mundo real y en otras la imaginaci n crea escenas de pasi n y b squeda..." (Edgardo Alarc n Romero. En: La Prensa, 23 de enero de 2020.) "Aqu el elemento fabulador, la mitolog a tradicional y la imaginaci n son los protagonistas, aunque con giros personales y un humor muy personal". (Emilio Ballesteros. En: El Ideal, Granada.)

This book—an ethnographic and discourse analytic study of an after-school video-making project for 1.5- and second-generation Southeast Asian American teenagers—explores the relationships among stereotype, identity, and ethnicity that emerge in this informal educational setting.Working from a unique theoretical foundation that combines linguistic anthropology, Asian American studies, and education, and using rigorous linguistic anthropological tools to closely examine video- and audio- recorded interactions gathered during the video-making project (in which teen participants learned the skills for creating their own video and adult staff learned to respect and value the local knowledge of youth), the author builds a compelling link between micro-level uses of language and macro-level discourses of identity, race, ethnicity, and culture. In this study of the ways in which teens draw on and play with circulating stereotypes of the self and the other, Reyes uniquely illustrates how individuals can reappropriate stereotypes of their ethnic group as a resource to position themselves and others in interactionally meaningful ways, to accomplish new social actions, and to assign new meanings to stereotypes.This is an important book for academics and students in sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology, discourse analysis, and applied linguistics with an interest in issues of youth, race, and ethnicity, and/or educational settings, and will also be of interest to readers in the fields of education, Asian American studies, social psychology, and sociology.
