The Language War
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Univ of California Pr
- Publish date: 08/01/2001
Description:
Robin Lakoff gets to the heart of one of the most fascinating and pressing issues in American society today: who holds power and how they use it, keep it, or lose it. In a brilliant and vastly entertaining discussion of news events that have occupied an enormous amount of media space -- political correctness, the Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas hearings, Hillary Rodham Clinton as First Lady, O.J. Simpson's murder trial, the Ebonics controversy, and the Clinton sex scandal -- Lakoff shows that the struggle for power and status at the end of the century is being played out as a war over language.
