The Sociology of Knowledge As a Model for Language Theory: Language As a Social Science

Robert N. St. Clair

4.9/5 (31998 ratings)

Description:The theoretical foundations of the language sciences have been dominated by the natural sciences. This has been done in spite of the fact that language also functions as legitimate paradigms in the social sciences and the humanities. This volume presents a rationale for a model of language as a social science. It incorporates many concepts from the social sciences into its new theoretical framework. The author begins his quest by looking at the nature of interdisciplinary linguistics and argues for a meta-theoretical model of language. The reason for this is rather clear. The natural science model of language cannot begin to account for the phenomena encountered by the social sciences and the humanities (the human sciences). Each must have its own fully functional paradigm before they can be incorporated into a more global metatheory of language.The parameters of this new model for language as a social science are investigated within the framework of the sociology of knowledge. One of these parameters includes symbolic interactionism with its concerns for a dramaturgical model of the social self and labeling theory with its focus on the political sociology of language. The other parameter includes the study of phenomenological society with its adjuncts in existential sociology and ethnomethodology.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
