This open access book presents studies of language use in
Indonesia, focusing on children and youth. It reports on
developments in the use of language for narrative production and
within the realm of popular culture and traditional cultural
practices in Indonesia. Through studies that include cohesion in
narrative production, language in radio advertising, naming
practices and formulaic prohibitions in Javanese, and speech
presentation in popular fiction, the book provides insights into
how sociocultural changes are reflected in language. This book is a
useful resource for students and scholars conducting research on
language and cultural practices in Indonesia, particularly in
relation to children and young people.
This book examines how style and intersubjective meanings emerge
through language use. It is innovative in theoretical scope and
empirical focus. It brings together insights from
discourse-functional linguistics, stylistics, and conversation
analysis to understand how language resources are used to enact
stances in intersubjective space. While there are numerous studies
devoted to youth language, the focus has been mainly on
face-to-face interaction. Other types of youth interaction,
particularly in mediated forms, have received little attention.
This book draws on data from four different text types -
conversation, e-forums, comics, and teen fiction - to highlight the
multidirectional nature of style construction. Indonesia provides a
rich context for the study of style and intersubjectivity among
youth. In constructing style, Indonesian urban youth have been
moving away from conventions which emphasized hierarchy and
uniformity toward new ways of connecting in intersubjective space.
This book analyzes how these new ways are realized in different
text types. This book makes a valuable addition to sociolinguistic
literature on youth and language and an essential reading for those
interested in Austronesian sociolinguistics.
This edited collection examines how people use a range of different
modalities to negotiate, influence, and/or project their own or
other people's identities. It brings together linguistic scholars
concerned with issues of identity through a study of language use
in various types of written texts, conversation, performance, and
interviews.
