Gender and Discourse

More about the book

The book presents a critical examination of language and gender, focusing on how women are reshaping their identities in traditionally male-dominated public spheres. Clare Walsh critiques existing dominance/difference debates and introduces a new analytical framework that integrates critical discourse and feminist perspectives. It includes case studies from politics, religion, and activism, along with tools for readers to analyze texts. Walsh's insightful analysis challenges stereotypes and encourages deeper exploration of women's roles in public life, making it essential for linguists and gender studies scholars.
