This book revisits discourse analytic practice, analyzing the idea
that the field has access to, provides, or even constitutes a
‘toolbox’ of methods. The precise characteristics of this toolbox
have remained largely un-theorized, and the author discusses the
different sets of tools and their combinations, particularly those
that cut across traditional divides, such as those between disciplines
or between quantitative and qualitative methods. The author emphasizes
the potential value of integrating methods in terms of triangulation
and its specific benefits, arguing that current trends in Open Science
require Discourse Studies to re-examine its methodological scope and
choices, and move beyond token acknowledgements of ‘eclecticism’.
In-depth case studies supplement the methodological discussion and
demonstrate the challenges and benefits of triangulation. This book
will be a valuable resource for students and scholars in Discourse
Studies, particularly those with an interest in combining methods and
working across disciplines.
