- Synopsis
- This introduction to the study of language in context presents a provocative new approach to communicative practice. William Hanks offers fresh insights into the dynamics of context, the indeterminacy of cultural forms, and the relation between human experience and the making of meaning. He explores the varieties of reflexivity in language, relating them to linguistic structure, textuality, and genres of practice.
