Abstract:

This book is the first in a unique series drawn from an interdisciplinary,
longitudinal project entitled ‘Thirty Years of Talk.’ For 30 years, Okano
recorded ethnographic interviews and collected data on the language of working
class women in Kobe, Japan. This long-range study sketches the transitions in
these women's lives and how their language use, discourse and identities
change in specific sociocultural contexts as they shift through different
stages of their personal and public lives. It is a ground-breaking, ‘real
time’ panel study that follows the same individuals and observes the same
phenomena at regular intervals over three decades. In this volume the authors
examine the changes in the speech of one particular woman, Kanako, as her
social identity shifts from high-school girl to mother and fisherman’s wife,
and as her relationship with the interviewer develops. They identify changes
in linguistic strategies as she negotiates gender/sexuality norms, stylistic
features related to the construction of rapport, the use of discourse markers
as she gets older, and the interviewer’s information-seeking strategies.
