Abstract:

In "Grammatical Gender in Interaction: Cultural and Cognitive Aspects"
Angeliki Alvanoudi explores the relation between grammatical gender in person
reference, culture and cognition in Modern Greek conversation. The author
investigates the cultural and cognitive aspects of grammatical gender, by
drawing on feminist sociolinguistic and non-linguistic approaches, cognitive
linguistics, research on linguistic relativity, studies on person reference in
interaction and conversation analysis. The study presented in this book shows
that the use of grammatical gender contributes to the routine achievement of
sociocultural gender in interaction and that grammatical gender guides
speakers’ thinking of referents as female or male at the time of speaking.
