Part A
1. Discourse analysis is sometimes defined as the analysis of language
'beyond the sentence'. This contrasts with types of analysis more typical of
modern linguistics, which are chiefly concerned with the study of grammar: the
study of smaller bits of language, such as sounds (phonetics and phonology),
parts of words (morphology), meaning (semantics), and the order of words in
sentences (syntax). Discourse analysts study larger chunks of language as they
flow together.

Discourse

Context

Linda Wood and Rolf Kroger, Doing Discourse Analysis. Sage,
2000
"[Discourse analysis] is not only about method;
it is also a perspective on the nature of language and its relationship to the
central issues of the social sciences. More specifically, we see discourse
analysis as a related collection of approaches to discourse, approaches that
entail not only practices of data collection and analysis, but also a set of
metatheoretical and theoretical assumptions and a body of research claims and
studies."

Stephanie Taylor, What is Discourse Analysis? Bloomsbury,
2013
"Discourse analysis is concerned with language
use as a social phenomenon and therefore necessarily goes beyond one speaker or one newspaper article to find
features which have a more generalized relevance. This is a potentially
confusing point because the publication of research findings is generally
presented through examples and the analyst may choose a single example or case
to exemplify the features to be discussed, but those features are only of
interest as a social, not individual, phenomenon."

Johnstone, "Discourse Analysis and Rhetorical Studies." Rhetoric in Detail: Discourse Analyses of
Rhetorical Talk and Text. John Benjamins, 2008
"Scholars in rhetoric and composition
studies have also issued calls for the inclusion of discourse analytic methods.
[Susan Peck] Macdonald has termed discourse studies 'the interconnected
fields of rhetoric and composition and applied
linguistics' (2002)."

Discursive psychology (DP) is a
form of discourse analysis that focuses on psychological
themes in talk, text and images. Discursive psychology is a field or sub
discipline of psychology centered on the analysis of language data, especially
transcribed talk. Psychological phenomena which have more conventionally been
theorized as innate, often with reference to cognition (e.g., attitudes,
remembering, ...
Discursive psychology is a relatively
new field or subdiscipline of psychology. It developed in the late twentieth
and early twenty-first century, mainly from social constructionism and
discourse analysis (see entries), and is strongly associated with
methodological innovation and the analysis of language data. However, its
greater importance is theoretical, through the challenges it has presented to
conceptualizations of key psychological phenomena, such as remembering, attitudes,
emotions, and to understandings of the person. It continues to be marked by
disputes about its proper territory and practice, and also to generate new and
differently named fields of work.

Social practice is a theory within psychology
that seeks to determine the link between practice and context within social
situations. Emphasized as a commitment to change, social practice occurs in two
forms: activity and inquiry. Most often applied within the context of human
development, social practice involves knowledge production and the theorization
and analysis of both institutional and intervention practices.
Social Practice is a term that has
allegiances with a number of movements in experimental art and performance
studies. Those allegiances bring to mind other terms that share some kinship
with social practice: activist art, protest performance, performance,
ethnography, relational aesthetics, conversation pieces, action research, and
other terms that signal a social turn in art practice as well as the
representational dimension of social and political formations. (Jackson,S.The Cambridge Companion to Performance Studies)

In literary
theory, a text is any object that can be "read," whether
this object is a work of literature, a street sign, an arrangement of buildings
on a city block, or styles of clothing. It is a coherent set of signs that transmits some kind of informative message.
This set of symbols is considered in terms of the informative message's content,
rather than in terms of its physical form or the medium in which it is
represented.
Sometimes a
text can mean anything that we can “read” or analyse, such as fashion, or a
map. However, most times we come across the word “text” it has an
explicitly literary meaning. The term was first used to denote parts of
the Bible studied by scholars, or the body of a literary work which was subject
to the scrutiny of editors and bibliographers.
