GENDER AND LANGUAGE

The course is designed to broaden the students’ knowledge about issues connected with language and gender. The linguistic perspective enables students to see how various theories and methodologies can be useful in researching relations between gender and language. Conversational analysis, discourse analysis, and stylistics will be used to address methods of dealing with communication styles in general and their gender-related aspects in particular. Power-status relations, ethnicity, social roles, domination, and political correctness observed on the basis of contemporary texts will be among the discussed issues showing the complexity of language and gender relations
