Social Discourse Analysis: Outlines of a Research Project (original) (raw)

2004, The Yale Journal of Criticism

AI-generated Abstract

The paper discusses the dynamics of social discourse analysis (SDA), emphasizing the interplay of conflicting ideologies and the necessity for an interdisciplinary approach to comprehend the complexities of social verisimilitude, censorship, and the legitimate language used in society. It critiques the notion of literary autonomy and advocates for integrating various discursive fields to unveil the underlying themes and connections in ideologies, particularly through historical contextualization. This analysis aims to reshape the understanding of literary texts by rooting them in their socio-historical discourse, thus revealing often overlooked ideological conditions that influence their reception and interpretation.
