  • Holtgraves, Thomas M. (2002): Language as social action: Social psychology and language use. Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates Publishers

    Abstract: This book is an interdisciplinary review and synthesis of the social psychological aspects of language use. The text weaves together research from philosophy, linguistics, sociolinguistics, anthropology, social psychology, cognitive psychology, pragmatics, and artificial intelligence to provide an integrative and timely review of language as social action. In this way the volume demonstrates clearly how many aspects of social life are mediated by language, and how understanding language use requires an understanding of its social dimension. This volume should serve as a valuable resource for students and researchers in social psychology and communication who want a clear and thorough presentation of the linguistic underpinnings of language use. Although this book is relevant for a variety of disciplines, it is written in a clear and straightforward style that will be accessible for readers regardless of their orientation. Topics covered include speech act theory and indirect speech acts, politeness and the interpersonal determinants of language, language and impression management and person perception, conversational structure, perspective taking, and language and social thought.
