The Sociolinguistics Reader - Volume 2: Gender and Discourse (Paperback, Volume 2)

This is the second volume of an account of the discipline of sociolinguistics in the 20th century. This volume looks at gender and discourse. The first section looks at patterns of language variation, examining how gender identities have been accomplished through language, and the importance of gender in accounting for language behaviour. The next section examines the sociolinguistics issues surrounding discourse, with reference to the communication of affective meaning, conversational routines, grammaticalization and language change, intertextuality, cross-cultural discourse patterns and their social implications.
