Abstract:

The book examines women’s language as an ideological construct historically
created by discourse. The aim is to demonstrate, by delineating a genealogy of
Japanese women’s language, that, to deconstruct and denaturalize the
relationships between gender and any language, and to account for why and how
they are related as they are, we must consider history, discourse and
ideology. The book analyzes multiple discourse examples spanning the premodern
period of the thirteenth century to the immediate post-WWII years, mostly
translated into English for the first time, locating them in political, social
and academic developments and describing each historical period in a manner
easily accessible for those readers not familiar with Japanese history. This
is the first book that describes a comprehensive development of Japanese
women’s language and will greatly interest students of Japanese language,
gender and language studies, linguistics, anthropology, sociology, and
history, as well as women’s studies and sexuality studies.
