Dear LinguistList subscribers,
I am very sorry to have kept you waiting so long for my reply! My free provider changed its policy a couple of months ago and accepted so many new users that it became almost impossible to log into their mail servers. As internet access in Poland is still a matter of high expenses I decided to change to a commercial account and so I gave up using the free account. However, I did set up a mail redirection request which obviously didn't work at all as it turned out a week ago when I logged on - tons of emails which kept lying there for a couple of months!!! I am sorry to all of you whose messages were left unanswered! Coming back to my query on gender differences in non-verbal communication Linguist 12.91 In the course of working on the subject I realized (actually, it was my supervisor who made me realize) that I would have to change the emphasis of my work. Thus I did not work so much on gender differences as such. However, I did receive some quite interesting replies to my query and I would like to share them with you. I would like to thank the following people for making their contribution: Ruth Stepherson Frank Hodgson Marianthi Makri-Tsilipakou Cheris Kramarae Pete Unseth Fabienne H. Baider Laurence Horn and to all those who did reply to my query but their mail didn't reach me because of the above mentioned IPS problems. - ---------------------------- Ruth stepherson provided me with her precious bibliography on gender linguistics in electronic communication which I share with you here.

In _Women, Information Technology, and Scholarship_, 52-61. Urbana, IL: Center for Advanced Study, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign It was pointed that the above mentioned article can be accessed from Cheris Kramarae's homepage at http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~cheris/vitae.html - ---------------------------- Obviously most essential studies in the field can be reached at Susan Herring's site. Having browsed a couple of relevant websites she seems to be the best person in the know to contact. You can access her bibliography at http://www.slis.indiana.edu/Faculty/herring_s.html or contact her in person at herring@indiana.edu You can also find a wealth of bibliographical information on the subject - undoubtedly the best one can find. - ---------------------------- An equally rich sources can be reached at Brenda Danet's website who's also done an interesting research in gender bending/swapping on the internet. http://atar.mscc.huji.ac.il/~msdanet - ---------------------------- Once again big thank you to all those who did respond to my query and equally big sorry for having responded to you so late. - Michal Lisecki, PhD candidate |
