Women, Language and Linguistics: Three American Stories from the First Half of the Twentieth Century: Routledge Studies in the History of Linguistics

Autor Julia S. Falk
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 oct 1999
Rather than the standard American story of an increasingly triumphant march of scientific inquiry towards structural phonology, Women, Language and Linguistics reveals linguistics where its purpose was communication; the appeal of languages lay in their diversity; and the authority of language lay in its speakers and writers. Julia S Falk explores the vital part which women have played in preserving a linguistics based on the reality and experience of language; this book finally brings to light a neglected perspective for those working in linguistics and the history of linguistics.
