Abstract:

This volume showcases cutting-edge research in the linguistic and discursive
study of masculinities, comprising the first significant edited collection on
language and masculinities since Johnson and Meinhof’s 1997 volume. Overall,
the chapters are linked together by a critical analytical perspective that
seeks to understand the relationships between discourse, masculinities and
power. Whereas most of the chapters offer detailed, linguistically informed
critiques of the ways in which old and new expressions of masculinities are
complicit in the reproduction of men’s hegemonic positions of power, the
chapters focusing on "dislocation" provide a complex picture, one in which
collusion and subversion go hand in hand. Contributions argue for the need for
research on language and masculinities to expand its remit so as to engage
with "gay masculinities," and unsettle gendered categories in order to
consider the ways in which women, transgendered and intersex individuals also
perform a variety of masculinities. Finally, unlike Johnson and Meinhof's 1997
collection, this volume not only offers a wider—and perhaps "queerer"
perspective—on the study of language and masculinities, but also covers a
broader geographical and socio-cultural spectrum, including work on Brazil,
Israel, New Zealand, Singapore, and South Africa.
