Description

In Opposition In Discourse: The Construction of Oppositional Meaning, Lesley Jeffries explores a phenomenon that has lacked sufficient attention: the contextual construction of oppositional meaning. While scholars in philosophy and politics have discussed the significance of opposition for millennia, most focus has remained on conventional opposites recognized by lexical semantics. This book shifts the focus toward how opposites are built within specific texts. Rather than looking only at dictionary definitions, Jeffries examines how meaning is constructed through socio-cultural viewpoints and original research. This work provides a new way to understand how texts set up opposing ideas that might not be recognizable as such outside of their specific context. Part of the Advances in Stylistics series, this text is an essential resource for those studying language, discourse, and the way meaning is shaped through text. It offers a fresh perspective on how language functions to create contrast and meaning in various communicative settings.
