About the Book

This book comprises a range of general discussions on tradition and innovation in the methodology used in discourse studies (Pragmatics, Discourse Analysis, Argumentation Theory, Rhetoric, Philosophy) and a number of empirical applications of such methodologies in the analysis of actual instances of language use in the public sphere – in particular, discourses arising in the context of the debate on the presence of religious symbols in public places.

Review :
"This is a timely, scholarly edition that will have an impact beyond the academic community. As everyone has a vested interest in the fairness and sincerity of debates about religion in the public sphere, this volume is to be welcomed as a thorough, detailed scientific examination of what can be often emotive issues. Its dispassionate and rigorous style serves as a prompt to remind us that we ignore truth at our peril in an age when religious controversies will persist." (Daniel Moulin, The Heythrop Journal 56, 2015)
