Covering how the linguistic expression of prejudice against women has evolved during the last fifty years, the author of the blog, Language: A feminist guide, pays attention both to the persistence of familiar problems, such as the dominance of men in many interactional settings and to the emergence of new challenges, such as the global rise of misogynist extremism online. The book provides students and general readers with an up-to-date survey of ideas, debates and research on a wide range of key topics, including sexist attitudes to women's speech, verbal sexual harassment in public spaces offline and online, biases in vocabulary and grammar, the discourse of the online "manosphere" and the way violence against women is reported by the news media. Moreover, Cameron outlines the efforts activists have made to change sexist and misogynist language, asking what has been achieved so far, and how a new generation is addressing current concerns. Accessible, non-technical and informed by scholarship from a wide range of disciplines from linguistics and anthropology to history, media studies and sociology, this text is essential reading for courses on language and gender in English Language, linguistics, women's and gender studies, media and communication studies"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Sexism in language. 650 0 $a Misogyny. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination against women. 650 0 $a English language $x Sex differences. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Cameron, Deborah, 1958- $t Language, sexism and misogyny $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2023 $z 9781003294115 $w (DLC) 2023028907 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240403014342.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AA49D804F17F11EE82DF7F7D41ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
