Linguistic Variation Social Practice Hardcover - 2000 - 1st Edition
by Eckert
First line
Studying the sociolinguistic dynamics of an adolescent community on its own terms requires rethinking aspects of our social theories of variation which by and large have been based on adult speech and adult social categories.
From the rear cover
Linguistic Variation as Social Practice is a study of the speech of the adolescent population of a midwestern high school, relating individuals' subtle patterns of pronunciation and grammar to participation in the peer social order.
Based on two years of sociolinguistic and ethnographic fieldwork in one school, supplemented by shorter periods of fieldwork in three other schools, the study focuses on the polarized social categories, the "jocks" and the "burnouts," that dominate social organization in all of these schools. This book describes the social categories, networks, and practices that constitute the local adolescent social order, relates these to wider patterns in the urban-suburban area, and ultimately to wider societal patterns.
Linguistic Variation as Social Practice is an ideal text for advanced students of sociolinguistics and anthropological linguistics.
