Abstract:

This collection of studies from around the world connects applied linguistic 
research with the complexities of gender and religion. The contributors 
explore the ways in which women in various religious situations use 
language to reveal and to create a religious identity of their own, and how 
language itself is used to position women in particular roles. The studies 
come from the USA, Nigeria, Brazil, Thailand, Canada, the UK and 
Poland.The varieties of engagements explored include on-line churches, 
small churches, emigrant experience, theological conversations and 
religious practice experienced in and through the media. Readers in applied 
linguistics, anthropology or religious studies, who are interested in language 
and its power in creating lived experience,  will find this book full of intriguing 
and illuminating connections.
