Public Discourses of Gay Men Hardback
by Paul Baker
Part of the Routledge Advances in Corpus Linguistics series
Hardback
Description
Queer linguistics has only recently developed as an area of study; however academic interest in this field is rapidly increasing.
Despite its growing appeal, many books on ‘gay language’ focus on private conversation and small communities.
As such, Public Discourses of Gay Men represents an important corrective, by investigating a variety of sources in the public domain.
A broad range of material, including tabloid newspaper articles, political debates on homosexual law and erotic narratives are used in order to analyse the language surrounding homosexuality.
Bringing together queer linguistics and corpus linguistics the text investigate how gay male identities are constructed in the public domain.
