QUESTIONING LINGUISTICS brings together different perspectives on
language studies and applications into a single volume and allows
readers to examine how linguists of diverse traditions study and
use this expert knowledge of language. By doing so, this volume
invites us to reconsider the nature and focus of the field of study
and questions a number of current thoughts about language theory,
application, and use. In effect, the nature of linguistics,
linguistic theory, and languages are called into question, as are
the methods that we as linguists may take for granted in our
developed research traditions. Scholars and researchers from within
linguistics and beyond will find this volume both accessible and
engaging, as it gathers the thoughts and opinions of experts in the
field alongside new theorists in an open forum for discussion that
diminishes the borders between these diverse threads.
