Abstract

This lively and accessible textbook looks at how we talk about sex and why we talk about it the way we do. Drawing on a wide range of examples, from personal ads to phone sex, from sado-masochistic scenes to sexual assault trials, the book provides a clear introduction to the relationship between language and sexuality. Using a broad definition of 'sexuality', the book encompasses not only issues surrounding sexual orientation and identity but also questions about the discursive construction of sexuality and the verbal expression of erotic desire. Cameron and Kulick contextualize their findings within current research in linguistics, anthropology and psychology, and bring together relevant theoretical debates on sexuality, gender, identity, desire, meaning and power. Topical and entertaining, this much-needed textbook will be welcomed by students and researchers in sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology and gender/sexuality studies, as well as anyone interested in the relationship between language and sex.

Abstract

A l'heure où la perspective de la réalisation du grand marché intérieur en 1992 rend indispensable le renforcement de la cohésion économique et sociale, il est important de souligner que les conditions de travail constituent non seulement un enjeu fondamental mais aussi une condition essentielle de la compétivité. Loin de se résumer à une série de coûts a priori ou a posteriori, l'amélioration des conditions de travail et de la sécurité constitue au contraire un gisement de productivité et d'amélioration des performances. De de ce fait, logiques sociales et logiques économiques ne sont pas nécessairement antagonistes. Elles sont au contraire convergentes et le présent ouvrage met en lumière ces convergences et leurs enjeux dans le secteur de la construction.
