Totalitarian Political Discourse?
Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften
978-3-631-63276-5 (ISBN)
This volume contributes to the study of political and especially totalitarian language in the countries of the former Eastern Bloc, by bringing together not only diachronic and synchronic aspects, but also by including different media types, such as newspapers, the internet, and different discourse types, e.g. environmental and gender discourses. The combination of historical and contemporary perspectives in many contributions add comparative dimensions, while also shedding light on relevant socio-political developments and phenomena in those post-communist countries, thus uniting linguistic methods with cultural studies.
Beatrix Kreß is assistant professor for intercultural communication at the University of Hildesheim.
