Pre-Owned Speakers, Listeners and Communication: Explorations in Discourse Analysis (Paperback) by Gillian Brown

Gillian Brown examines the ways in which speakers and listeners use language collaboratively to talk about what they can see in front of them and about a series of events. The focus of attention is upon the listener's role, as the listener tries to make sense of what the speaker says in a highly constrained context.
