Evaluation in Advertising Reception - A Socio-Cognitive and Linguistic Perspective

"Placed within the context of reception studies, this book examines the persuasive potential of advertisements that rely on re-contextualising shared cultural knowledge. The study focuses on three advertisements that cite well-known paintings and investigates the socio-cognitive resources triggered in the interpretive process. Bullo uncovers the way in which the attitudinal disposition and cognitive mechanisms involved are actualised in linguistic structures by proposing a new integrated framework for the study of sense-making discourse. The book concludes with a discussion of the important implications of such a typology, making it an significant addition to both socio-cognitive discourse analysis as well as to the research of advertising practices"--

Commentaire

"The book offers a new perspective for advertising studies by locating itself within the context of both reception studies and discourse analysis. ... Bullo offers an innovative approach to explaining the construction of evaluative stance in advertising reception and also successfully reveals the delicate complexity of sense-making discourse. ... this book can be highly recommended to scholars interested in reception studies, discourse analysis, advertising practices and evaluation studies in general."
