Know about the book -

Dialogue Analysis IX: Dialogue in Literature and the Media, Part 1: Literature is written by Anne Betten and published by Walter de Gruyter. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3110946068 (ISBN 10) and 9783110946062 (ISBN 13).

These two volumes offer a selection of the papers held at the conference of the International Association for Dialogue Analysis (IADA) in 2003. Volume I contains 38 articles devoted to dialogue and the phenomenon of 'dialogicity' in literature, ranging from antiquity to a large number of modern languages and literatures. The conversation-analytic approaches drawn upon are notable for their methodological diversity. This is also true of the 32 articles in Volume II. The main focus here is on present-day types of dialogue in the new electronic media and their 'traditional' counterparts (press, radio, television, film). The examples are taken from various countries, and they are discussed in terms of the intercultural, semiotic, translatorial, and general pragmatic issues they pose.
