Description
Language and Masculinity by Sally Johnson and Ulrike Hanna Meinhof is an extensive account of men's language and its role in constructing masculinity. This landmark study in feminist linguistics sheds light on male speaking patterns, which have often been overlooked in favour of more prominent areas of research. Published in 1996, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of the ways in which language is used to construct and negotiate masculinity. By examining male language patterns, Johnson and Meinhof offer a unique insight into the social and cultural contexts that shape our understanding of masculinity. This book is an important contribution to feminist linguistics, providing a valuable resource for scholars and researchers interested in the intersection of language and gender.
