Language in Culture: Lectures on the Social Semiotics of Language
Silverstein, Michael (University of Chicago)
Showing how talk makes identities, categories and groups across time and space, Silverstein reveals how cultural knowledge is built discursively, stabilizing and changing both societies and politics. This book is for those who wish to understand how communication works, and how ways of talking enable social interaction, persuasion and coordination.
