Bad Language - Contemporary Introductions to Philosophy of Language
Cappelen, Herman (Professor of Philosophy, Professor of Philosophy, University of Oslo / University of St Andrews)
Bad Language is the first textbook on an emerging area in the study of language: non-idealized language use, the linguistic behaviour of people who exploit language for malign purposes. This lively, accessible introduction offers theoretical frameworks for thinking about such topics as lies and bullshit, slurs and insults, coercion and silencing.
