[Linganth] part. obs. with groups

[Nora Tyeklar]

Hello,

Susan Harding's work comes to mind, namely her book *The Book of Jerry
Falwell: Fundamentalist Language and Politics*.
And a shorter piece also by her  Representing Fundamentalism: The Problem
of the Repugnant Cultural Other <https://www.jstor.org/stable/40970650>

sincerely,

Nora
