Research interests:

Ewa Bogdanowska-Jakubowska holds MA (English linguistics), PhD (Linguistics) and DLitt from the University of Silesia in Katowice. Her scholarly interests include linguistic pragmatics and discourse analysis. She is the author of many publications on (im)politeness and face, and cross-cultural communication. At present, her research and teaching focus on Critical Discourse Studies, and discourse and identity. Since the 2010s, her work has taken a more critical perspective and now it deals with the discursive representation of social reality, ideology and culture. Her current research focusses on Polish and American ceremonial, media and everyday discourses.
