Beschreibung
The growing number of the researchers have realized the necessity of the paradigm change in many fields in humanities from the theory-based towards more practice-oriented interdisciplinary studies. For example, mathematics and later cybernetics have made a great contribution to the development of new applied fields in linguistics such as Computational Linguistics and Corpus Linguistics. Quantitative methods and tools have become a dominating reality in humanities. In this connection, many researchers and students in humanities and social sciences would be definitely interested in applied discourse studies.
In the recent decades, discourse has become one of the top overarching themes in humanities and social sciences that reflect its interdisciplinary nature. The researchers in linguistics, literary theory, philosophy, semiotics, psychology, sociology and political sciences try to address various aspects of this very complex phenomenon. Meantime the studies in text and discourse have mostly focused on the theoretical aspects reflecting major breakthroughs in the field, whereas the applied aspects of discourse studies have not been properly addressed so far. In this connection, there is a strong need in a comprehensive study of these applied aspects, which can demonstrate that text and discourse studies have a potential both from theoretical and applied perspectives.
