Reviews for this course Testudo

Cross-listing with ISRL448M. Credit only granted for ISRL448M or COMM498M. This course examines two oppositional discourses in Israel: 1) war discourse, which utilizes various discursive strategies, such as metaphors, lexical choices, and euphemisms, to routinize war; 2) peace discourse: which utilizes conciliatory speech acts, equivocation in diplomatic discourse, recognition discourse, and separation and engagement discourses. We will explore how war and peace discourses impact social consciousness in Israel.
