LINGUA INGLESE: LINGUAGGI SETTORIALI

This course aims at investigating language use in specialised contexts.

The course will encompass both theoretical and practical aspects of specialised discourses.

In the first part of the course theoretical and methodological tools will be provided which will be applied to the analysis of new media and social media language. An analysis of authentic materials in that field will also be within the scope of this course.
