Discourse Analysis

The method of discourse analysis is complex and cannot be properly understood without extensive reading. The aim of this analysis is to provide you with an outline of the approach so that if you haven't read much about it you can, among other things, decide whether you would like to learn more about the method or whether you would like to carry out an investigation using this approach. An example is provided further down the page to illustrate a popular kind of discourse analysis, whihc is known as thematic analysis. It includes some examples of transcription symbols.
