Language, Sexuality, and Power - Studies in Intersectional Sociolinguistics

Zusatztext 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.
