  • "This revised edition provides a broad analysis of the term 'discourse' and a thorough examination of the many theoretical assumptions surrounding it."@en
  • "Offering an accessible analysis of the term 'discourse', this second edition is updated to include new advances in critical discourse analysis, coverage of theorists such as Zizek and Bourdieu and a revised section on social psychology."
  • "The term 'discourse' has a wider range of possible significations than any other term in literary and cultural theory. Yet it is often the term within theoretical texts which is least defined. Discourse uses a number of literary and non-literary texts to illustrate how the term has been used. Mills discusses the ways that feminist, colonial and post-colonial discourse theorists have appropriated the term developed by Michel Foucault and put in other contexts. In this clear and helpful analysis, Sara Mills has provided a sense of the historical development of the term 'discourse' as well as some straight-forward working definitions, as they are currently used within different disciplines. Sara Mills is Research Professor at the School of Cultural Studies, Sheffield Hallam University. She has published on feminist linguistic and literary theory and on feminist colonial discourse theory."@en
  • "This volume provides a broad analysis of the term 'discourse' and a thorough examination of the many theoretical assumptions surrounding it. In the revised edition of this invaluable guidebook, Sara Mills: examines the historical definitions and developments of discourse analyzes Foucault's use of the term and its appropriation in the fields of linguistics, social psychology, and feminist, colonial and post-colonial theory explores the changes that have taken place in the field of critical discourse analysis since original publication discusses the work of various discourse theorists, including Zizek and Bourdieu. A fully updated bibliography, new glossary and suggestions for further reading make this more than ever the essential introductory guide to the concept of discourse for students of literary theory."
