Description

"Structure and Meaning in Conversation and Literature brings together conversation analysis and reader-response theories in order to understand more fully how readers produce meaning when they interact with texts. Person demonstrates how literary discourse contains adaptations of structures in everyday conversation, thus guiding readers in producing meaning. This study will be of value to scholars and to students of conversation analysis and of literary theory."--BOOK JACKET.
