Queer linguistics – in its position as both a linguistic science
of and for queer folk – is inherently agitating to the
disciplinary anxiety of a general linguistic science. It
represents, as all queer science does, a disruption of the
normative modes of knowledge production and a displacement of
academic authority. This collection reconsiders the placement of
the queer subject, both as the researcher and as the researched,
within and beyond the discipline and provides an intellectual space
for the interdisciplinary (and sometimes anti-disciplinary)
linguistic science of gender and sexuality. In three sections, it
respectively considers the development of hyper-speciated queer
linguistic subfields, the interdisciplinarity of intersectional
approaches to queer language, and the institution of queer
linguistic science both within and beyond the academy. Taken
together, the essays in this collection confront the scientific and
institutional discipline of linguistics from a queer vantage point,
one which is perhaps inherently interdisciplinary in its
formulation.
