[Folkserv] Spring class on language and place

[Modan, Galey]

Hi everyone,

I still have some room in my language and place class, which I thought might be of interest to some of you. The class meets on Tuesdays from 1:50-4:50. Description below; feel free to email me with any questions.

Happy New Year,

Galey


English 7872: Language and Place (Special Topics in English Linguistics)

Spring 2023

Galey Modan (modan.1 at osu.edu)

Tues 1:50-4:50



This interdisciplinary course addresses how humans use language to imbue space with social meaning, turning space into place. We will investigate topics such as media representations of gentrification, catcalling and gendered rights to space, linguistic encoding of spatial relations, linguistic landscapes (written language in the built environment), jumping scale, and race, accent and local identity. The class will also include a brief introduction to discourse analysis. Reading materials are drawn from the fields of sociolinguistics, urban and linguistic anthropology, and cultural geography, with an emphasis on ethnographic work. Students will conduct their own mini-ethnographies of a place of their choice within the Columbus area. Although no knowledge of linguistics is assumed, readings and discussions include (but are not limited to) close analysis of the linguistic features and strategies that speakers or writers use in their constructions of place.

2022 ---- 2023

Thanks to the Ohio Land-Lab Residency organized by Dr Janice Glowski, Dr Terry Hermsen, and Dr Michelle Wibblesman, and supported by Otterbein University, Ohio State University, Denison University, Ohio Wesleyan University, and Kenyon College, the It Sounds Like Love immersive experience has reached many souls near and far, both human and more-than-human, and we are grateful to see it move on into the world in the new year.

In this art as environmental activism, native seeds from Ohio are offering us an experience to visualize the power of an inclusive language that connects all living beings.

We would love to see you at the opening in the Audubon Grange Insurance Center in Columbus on the 5th of January 6-8pm!

And stay tuned in 2023 for the book that has come from the many layers of  research and connections that has gone into this work.

Thank you for being part of this growing community! The work breathes through you.

With much love and thanks,
Cadine
