"This book combines a range of theoretical and methodological approaches to metadiscourse and offers new conceptual tools and frameworks for analysing written, spoken and multimodal discourse. The studies included in the volume offer new perspectives on the role of metadiscourse in building and maintaining interaction between individuals and within different communities. Importantly, the studies are not restricted to academic and professional domains, as several authors explore new research avenues, such as communication on social media platforms." -Maria Kuteeva, Professor of English Linguistics, Stockholm University In this book, a solid and emerging group of international researchers contributes to the theory of metadiscourse and to our understanding of the role metadiscourse and related 'meta' phenomena may play in digital forms of communication. Providing examples of new research methods and approaches, the authors investigate progressively hybridized academic and non-academic genres that have migrated from analogue to digital format. The book offers valuable insights on how digital communication has changed today's communication environments and provides examples of research methods needed to capture that change. This volume will be appreciated by scholars and graduate students interested in linguistics, corpus linguistics and metadiscourse.
