Containing essays about the historicity of discourse from the fields of linguistics, literary studies, and the social sciences, this volume documents the multidisciplinary nature of discourse analysis. The essays examine the historical relativity of language usage, communicative intentions, and their impact on humanistic theory formation along with the historical dimensions of political communication and the discursivity of literary forms.
