Foreword
This text introduces the fundamentals of speech communication to students who have little or no background in communication theory. Its three overriding goals are to help the students understand the pervasiveness of communication in their lives, to demystify the theoretical process, and to help students become more systematic and critical in their thinking about theory.
We have tried to describe various aspects in speech communication. The book is structured into 12 lectures. The introductory foundations lectures are dedicated to elucidating the origin of communication theory, its connection with other disciplines, and analysis of such key concepts as: communication, communication process, the components and characteristics of communication etc. Much attention has been paid to the analysis of communication forms and types as well as the models of communication. We have also concentrated on the components of communicative (speech) act with a special emphasis on discourse (discourse analysis) and text.
Each lecture is followed by self check test, which aims at helping the students to master their knowledge in different aspects of communication theory. Reccommended readings at the end of every lecture point to the literature sources where readers can find further information to enrich their study of communication. In preparing this edition the author has tried to take into consideration the latest achievements in different branches of linguistics.
At the end of the course the students are expected to brush up their knowledge in the field of communication theory and master a number of concepts, which might be helpful both in their studies and life.
