This book is a contribution to the study of the linguistic concept
of gender. It focuses on the problem of assigning gender to animal
nouns. This problem is topical in view of the fact that in
present-day English, gender is a marginal grammatical category and
therefore recedes into the background in descriptions of today's
English. Grammatical gender is a rare topic of research, scientific
discussions or papers. The detailed analysis of gender assignment
to animal names is based on two subcorpora: the English edition of
National Geographic and the English edition of the Journal of
Zoology. The book closes with a contrastive analysis of gender
markers.
