Description
The Body in Voice is a comprehensive yet accessible introduction to linguistic semiotics. Its target audience includes students of the broad range of disciplines dealing with communication and with issues of representation - from semiotics and literary analysis to media, cultural studies and beyond. Advanced semiotic terms and concepts are presented in a straightforward format, focusing on practical applications, plentiful examples, and ideas for further research. Of particular interest is the detailed coverage of the corporality of voice and the verbal-nonverbal interface.
