Voices in Texts and Contexts presents different
perspectives of “voice”, a concept emerging from
language choices, social and cultural phenomena, and
psychology. In weaving a tapestry of linguistic
experiences, from analyses of language phenomena
including localised English to explanations of human
behaviour, this book offers insights into how we use
language, construct discourse, and express ourselves
in light of selected texts and specific contexts.
This book grew out of the 6th and 7th International
Conferences on Discourse and Society organised by
the Faculty of Languages and Linguistics, Universiti
Malaya, Malaysia. It contains chapters that give special
focus to Malaysia at the macro level—such as the
naming of disabled people, mastery of the Malay
language by migrants, loanwords of Sanskrit origin in
Malaysian— as well contributions by invited scholars
whose academic interests intersect with the theme of
the volume.
This book is suitable for scholars, educators,
researchers, and the interested general public.
