Critical discussions of feminist CA.

[Elizabeth Stokoe]

Dear Joshua

You could look at the special issue of Discourse and Society in 2002, edited by Ann Weatherall and myself, on these topics - plus Susan Speer's (2005) book Gender Talk published by Routledge. My co-authored book Discourse and Identity (2006, Edinburgh University Press) also deals with these issues.

Subject: [GALA-L] Critical discussions of feminist CA.

Dear all,

I'm looking for critical discussions of feminist conversation analysis (e.g. Wowk 2007, Hegarty 2007) or rejoinders to such critiques (e.g. Kitzinger 2007).  I'm largely interested in those published after 2000 and aimed specifically at the framework as articulated by Kitzinger and others, though am also looking for suggestions for critical discussions of examining gender or other feminist concerns within CA more broadly (e.g. the Schegloff, Wetherell and Billig exchanges).  Is anyone familiar with any of these discussions in print?

All best,

Joshua
