Watching TV with a Linguist

Herausgeber: Beers Fägersten, Kristy

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Challenges the conventional view of television as lowbrow entertainment devoid of intellectual activity. Rather, Fägersten champions the use of fictional television to learn about linguistics and at the same time promotes enriched television viewing experiences by explaining the role of language in creating humour, conveying drama, and developing identifiable characters.
