especially her analysis of advice shows. Some references are:

discourse analysis of Japanese prescriptive texts. In Jeff
Verschueren, ed., Language and ideology: Selected papers from the
sixth International Pragmatics Conference. Vol. 1. Antwerp:IPrA.

feminist critical pedagogy in a beginning JFL class. Japanese
