The Intertext series has been specifically designed to meet the needs of contemporary English Language Studies. Working with Texts: A Core Introduction to Language Analysis (second edition 2001) is the foundation text, which is complemented by a range of 'satellite' titles. These provide students with hands-on practical experience of textual analysis through special topics, and can be used individually or in conjunction with Working with Texts. [+/-]


The Language of Websites:
• explores the ways in which websites use and present language
• covers many different types of web-based interaction, from buying online and auction sites, to search engines, email links and chatrooms
• considers the structures of language online, such as audience interaction and how hypertext alters narrative structure
• features a full glossary, which assumes very little prior knowledge and
includes linguistic, ICT and media terminology
• is accompanied by a supporting website at http://markboardman.com
