Download or read book The Politics of Linguistics written by Frederick J. Newmeyer and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1988-03-15 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linguists in the past two centuries have, for the most part, approached language as an autonomous entity; their practice has been to study languages without considering the culture, society, or beliefs of the speakers. "Autonomous linguistics" has been attacked from both the left and the right. Critics on the left (in particular Marxists) argue that the separation of language from its societal context reinforces the status quo by downplaying the role of language as an instrument of ideology and social control. Critics on the right object to the value-free analyses of individual languages required by the autonomous approach and to the idea that all languages merit equal attention. The Politics of Linguistics surveys two centuries of debate over autonomy. The discussion includes the political implications of the birth of the modern field of linguistics in the Romantic movement, the views of Marx and Engels on language, the attack on structural linguistics by both Hitler and Stalin, the role of Christian missionary groups and the military in building the field in the United States, and the relation between Noam Chomsky's linguistic theories and his political views. Frederick J. Newmeyer demonstrates that external political demonstrates that external political currents have often influenced the relative popularity of the autonomous approach to language. He argues that autonomous linguistics, far from being inconsistent with progressive political goals, can be creatively applied to the fulfillment of such goals.
Download or read book Marxism and Ideology written by Ferruccio Rossi-Landi and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ferruccio Rossi-Landi was one of Italy's foremost Marxist theorists. In Marxism and Ideology, which represents the culmination of his life's work, he goes further than any writer to illuminate the complex issues raised by the concept of `ideology'. Through its penetrating analysis of the intimate relationship between language, consciousness, and power, his treatise not only offers a valuable review of the history of the notion of ideology and the debate surrounding it, but represents an original and comprehensive revision of the classicMarxist theory of ideology. While retaining the conceptual framework of historical materialism, the author takes on board three major developments in post-war human sciences: the recognition of Marxism's shortcomings as a predictive and strictly empirical system of thought, the relativism whichhas invaded every academic discipline, and the emergence of semiology and linguistics as major fields of enquiry. In the hands of Rossi-Landi, Marxism becomes both a finely-tuned analytical tool for investigating ideology and a fully fledged ideology in its own right.

Download or read book Linguistic Culture and Language Policy written by Harold Schiffman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By looking closely at the multilingual democracies of India, France and the USA, Harold F. Schiffman examines how language policy is primarily a social construct based on belief systems, attitudes and myths. Linguistic Culture and Language Policy exposes language policy as culture-specific, helping us to understand why language policies evolve the way they do; why they work, or not; and how people's lives are affected by them. These issues will be of specific interest to linguists specialising in multilingual/multicultural societies, bilingual educationalists, curriculum planners and teachers.
