Sinopsis

Queer linguistics has only recently developed as an area of study, however academic interest in this field is rapidly increasing. Despite its growing appeal, many books on âÇÖgay languageâÇÖ focus on private conversation and small communities. As such, Public Discourses of Gay Men represents an important corrective, by investigating aávariety of sources in the public domain. A broad range of material, including tabloid newspaper articles, political debates on homosexual law and erotic narratives are used in order to analyse the language surrounding homosexuality.áBringing together queer linguistics and corpus linguistics the text investigate how gay male identities are constructed in the public domain.
