Devices in discourse

Data:

Printed material

  • Highlight variability of decisions
  • Show how variable versions used to accomplish rhetorical business
  • examines how this process brings about, sustains and legitmates social practices

Formulate the world as:

  • scripted, usual and normal or strange, unusual and exceptional

This

  • Performs interactional business
  • on concrete occasions

Scriptedness = discursive accomplishment not mere cognitive response to pre set features of the world.

Scripts:

Repeated exposure = build model of

  • regular and recurrent features
  • confirmed expectations = unnoticed
  • Anomalies: noted

Event schema/script

Language use

Internal states: Only relevant when made relevant by participants. Cultural resources

People actively construct world as:

  • Ordered/scripted vs anomalous
  • Routine vs exceptional

Script formulations:

  • Establish whats normal to counter other things abnormal
  • Establish whats normal to counter strangeness: strange = accountable
  • Establish someones behaviour as scripted therefore depositional: blame/praise
