Discourse:
Boxing With God
Discourse
Discourse refers to communication practices. It is
a more expansive term than writing or even
language in that it covers many media--writing,
speaking, digital text, gestures, cultural codes,
and visual images.
A discourse community is a group of people who
are unified by similar patterns of language use,
shared assumptions, common knowledge, and
parallel habits of interpretation.
