Language, Sexuality, and Power: Studies in Intersectional Sociolinguistics (Studies in Language and Gender) - Softcover
Synopsis
Language, Sexuality, and Power: Studies in Intersectional Sociolinguistics examines the diversity of sexuality as a social and linguistic phenomenon. Bringing together work on Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, North America and the Middle East, the volume explores how different ideologies of what it means to belong to a nation or culture influence how sexualities are both understood and linguistically expressed in a range of global locales.
Contributions to the volume use experiments, discourse analysis and different types of statistical tests to identify the particular aspects of language - accent, grammar, vocabulary, discourse - that are ideologically associated with sexuality in specific contexts. Combining insights from linguistics, anthropology, sociology and cultural studies, the essays describe how individuals draw on these culturally-specific associations both when evaluating the speech of others and in their everyday presentations of self. Together, the eleven chapters in the collection provide a wide-ranging and multi-method perspective on how language mediates individual desires and larger social structures. They also serve to demonstrate the diverse interconnections between sexuality and other dimensions of lived experience in a variety of previously under-explored national and linguistic settings.

Review
"I highly recommend this volume for anyone interested in current studies of
sexuality and language, gender and language, or with an interest in the complex
ways non-normative identities interact with cultural expectations. Each chapter
stands as pioneering research in its own right, and the volume provides an excellent
global snapshot of cultural practices regarding sexuality and language." --Journal of Sociolinguistics
