Languages and Publics: The Making of Authority
Autor Susan Gal, Kathryn Woolarden Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 ian 2014
Contributions to this volume investigate two related questions: first, how different images of linguistic phenomena gain social credibility and political influence; and, secondly, the role of linguistic ideology and practices in the making of political authority. Using both historical and ethnographic approaches, they examine empirical cases ranging from small-scale societies to multi-ethnic empire, from nineteenth-century linguistic theories to contemporary mass media, and from Europe to Oceania to the Americas.
Contributors include Susan Gal, Kathryn Woolard, Judith Irvine, Richard Bauman, Michael Silverstein, Jane Hill, Joseph Errington, Bambi Schieffelin, Jacqueline Urla and Ben Lee.

PostgraduateRecenzii
This volume constitutes an important stimulus for further research in the domain of public spheres, linguistic ideologies, and colonial and postcolonial studies, and exemplifies a very sophisticated research agenda that is indespensable to all those interested in practices, agency, social change, and ideologically mediated construction of local and translocal sociopolitical arenas. (Lukas Tsitsipis, Language in Society)
