SOCIOLINGUISTICS: A Resource Book for Students
"This textbook is enormously enabling. Not only does it
comprehensively provide the basic theory and method at the right
level, but beginners have the means and the models so that they can
get their 'hands dirty' with real data and real problems in doing
sociolinguistics." -William Downes, University of East Anglia
Including a disparate range of texts from an interview with
Madonna to an article from the Calcutta Telegraph and
core readings from Deborah Cameron, Rosina Lippi-Green and
Norman Fairclough, this book brings together sample texts,
commentaries, activities and key secondary texts. It covers
every conceivable topic in the field, including accent and
dialect, ethnicity and multilingualism, class, age, gender,
pidgins and national and international Englishes. This book
will be the number one resource for all people trying to
understand the complex tie between sociology and
linguistics. Flagship volume in the Routledge English
Introductions series, edited by Peter Stockwell. Forthcoming
volumes include Grammar and Vocabulary and Pragmatics and
Discourse.
