Changing Genre Conventions in Historical English News Discourse is written by Birte Bös and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 9027268568 (ISBN 10) and 9789027268563 (ISBN 13).
This volume explores the dynamics of genre conventions in historical English news discourse. The contributions cover a wide spectrum of news writing and publication formats: from corantos to modern tabloids, from prototypical hard news stories and crime reports to more specialised genres such as medical and scientific news, advertisements, death notices and spoof news. Investigating linguistic, pragmatic and social factors, the authors trace the triggers, mechanisms and agents of change that have shaped genre conventions in historical news discourse from the 17th century to the present day.
