Abstract:

Language and gender are interconnected, social and relational acts
through which we constantly remake our worlds. But what happens when
our ways of doing gender cannot be neatly categorized into traditional
binary systems, including not only the social groupings of roles,
practices and identities, but also the forms and structures through
which we do language? This book brings together a broad range of
scholars to explore the undoing and redoing of gender binaries in
non-Anglophone communities and contexts, in and through their
linguistic and social reimaginings. Each of the contributions to this
book reflects on this ongoing change and its place in our everyday
lives, including the ways that its outcomes are both contested and
fluid. This volume represents an important step in scholarship in
language and gender, one that stands to inform a public increasingly
aware of these remakings and one that calls on all of us to stand in
the tensions of our own humanity and look through it for how our
languaging might ‘do’ imaginary worlds that are more equitable, more
connected, and more just for us all.
