Description

Explore the complex dynamics between the White House and the press corps with this specialized linguistic study. Published by Routledge as part of the Advances in Corpus Linguistics series, this book provides a deep look into the language used by press secretaries and journalists during the late Clinton administration. By analyzing a compiled corpus of approximately fifty press briefings, the text covers major historical events ranging from the Kosovo crisis to the Clinton-Lewinsky affair. This work demonstrates how concordance technology and detailed linguistic evidence from corpora can be applied to study discourse features and communicative strategies used by speakers in high-stakes political environments. This volume serves as a unique resource for those studying political communication and linguistics. It offers a practical look at how language functions as a tool for argument and strategy within the halls of power.
