This 2007 book develops a coherent theoretical approach to style in sociolinguistics, illustrated with copious examples. It explains how speakers project different social identities and create different social relationships through their style choices, and how speech-style and social context inter-relate. Style therefore refers to the wide range of strategic actions and performances that speakers engage in, to construct themselves and their social lives. Coupland draws on and integrates a wide variety of contemporary sociolinguistic research as well as his own extensive research in this field. The emphasis is on how social meanings are made locally, in specific relationships, genres, groups and cultures, and on studying language variation as part of the analysis of spoken discourse. 410 0$aKey topics in sociolinguistics. 606 $aLanguage and languages$xVariation 606 $aLanguage and languages$xStyle 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aIdentity (Psychology) 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xVariation. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xStyle. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 615 0$aIdentity (Psychology) 676 $a417/.7 700 $aCoupland$b Nikolas$f1950-$0322241 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451722403321 996 $aStyle$9239153 997 $aUNINA
