Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The most important challenges humans face - identity, life, death, war, peace, the fate of our planet - are manifested and debated through language. This book provides the intellectual and practical tools we need to analyse how people talk about language, how we can participate in those conversations, and what we can learn from them about both language and our society. Along the way, we learn that knowledge about language and its connection to social life is not primarily produced and spread by linguists or sociolinguists, or even language teachers, but through everyday conversations, on-line arguments, creative insults, music, art, memes, twitter-storms - any place language grabs people's attention and foments more talk. An essential new aid to the study of the relationship between language, culture and society, this book provides a vision for language inquiry by turning our gaze to everyday forms of language expertise. Drawing on examples of conversation, social media and daily news, Rymes illustrates how knowledge about language and its social value spreads through everyday language debates. A lively account of how we talk about language, it will be an invaluable resource for graduate students and researchers in sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology.
