Women Changing Language by Anne Pauwels

Women Changing Language documents and discusses feminist language reform, looking at the initiatives and actions of women around the world to change the biased representation of the sexes in language. The book pays tribute to the activities of many women who have helped debunk myths about the relationship between women and language, for example that women are 'consumers' of language and men are 'makers' of meaning and creators of language rules. The study reverses this view, concentrating on women as meaning 'makers'.
Pauwels, Anne: - Anne Pauwels is Professor of Sociolinguistics at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.
