> For students interested in using discourse analysis as part of a folklore, linguistics, literature, or other humanities or social science research project, this course will give you the tools to investigate how language shapes perceptions, values, social interaction, and power struggles. The course provides an overview of the major approaches to analyzing spoken and written discourse used in sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology, including interactional sociolinguistics, conversation analysis, ethnography of communication, pragmatics, and critical discourse analysis. The approach that we will take to analyzing texts is a micro-level one, focusing on the details of linguistic structure and how those details connect to more macro spheres of social life.  Students will collect spoken and written texts and analyze them in short paper assignments.
> 
> REQUIREMENTS: transcription assignment, 3 short papers, one 15-page final paper.
