Description

Language and Gender: A Reader explores the complex relationships between language, power, and identity. This revised edition builds upon the foundational research that has shaped the field since its initial publication in 1998.

New articles and two new sections have been added to reflect the widening range of language and gender research, both geographically and socially. The book draws on research from around the world, including Brazil, China, Japan, North America, and Europe, to discuss topics such as single-sex talk, power dynamics in language, and the relevance of gender in spoken interaction.

Accessible introductions to each section provide context for the diverse range of entries, making this Reader a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the intersections of language and gender.
