Competing Discourses Perspective and Ideology in Language

Competing Discourses Perspective and Ideology in Language

This book discusses and explores the relationship between language and world view. David Lee presents recent research in linguistics drawing together strands from a number of different areas of the subject: the nature of linguistic and conceptual categories the role of metaphor in the everyday use of language gender differentiation and social variation in speech. In this study David Lee considers a broad range of issues in the light of two contrasting views on language. For much of its history linguistics has been dominated by a tradition which sees individual languages as uniform homogenous systems. However there has always been an opposite view emphasising the complex tensions and cross-currents inherent in linguistic usage. This alternative perspective is explored in the analysis of a wide range of literary and non-literary texts: casual conversations interviews newspaper reports official memoranda television commercials and extracts from novels. The author describes how both spoken and written texts can be seen as the sites where tensions between competing discourses stemming from different social positions and perspectives are illustrated. | Competing Discourses Perspective and Ideology in Language

The Routledge International Handbook of Harmful Cultural Practices

The Routledge International Handbook of Harmful Cultural Practices

This handbook looks at cross-cultural work on harmful cultural practices considered gendered forms of abuse of women. These include female genital mutilation (FGM) virginity testing hymenoplasty and genital cosmetic surgery. Bringing together comparative perspectives intersectionality and interdisciplinarity it uses feminist methodology and mixed methods with ethnography of central importance to provide holistic grounded theorizing within a framework of transformative research. Taking female genital mutilation a topical contested practice and making it a heuristic reference for related procedures makes the case for global action based on understanding the complexity of harmful cultural practices that are contextually differentiated and experienced in intersectional ways. But because this phenomenon is enshrouded in matters of sensitivity and prejudice narratives of suffering are muted and even suppressed are dismissed as indigenous ritual or become ammunition for racist organizing. Such conflicted and often opaque debates obstruct clear vision of the scale of both problem and solution. Divided into six parts: • Discourses and Epistemological Fault Lines• FGM and Related Patriarchal Inscriptions • Gender and Genitalia • Female Bodies and Body Politics: Economics Law Medicine Public Health and Human Rights • Placing Engagement Innovation Impact Care • Words and Texts to Shatter Silence Comprised of 24 newly written chapters from experts around the world this book will be of interest to scholars and students of nursing social work and allied health more broadly as well as sociology gender studies and postcolonial studies. | The Routledge International Handbook of Harmful Cultural Practices
