Description

Science thrives on academic debate and professional disagreement. This volume explores how language serves as the primary medium for these intellectual struggles. Often, a dispute over a subject matter is actually a struggle over the specific words used to describe it. Scholars work to find new terms for emerging concepts or attempt to add new layers of meaning to existing terminology. This book examines the forms and functions of such specialized discourses across various scientific fields. By understanding how terms are contested, readers can see how certain perspectives gain dominance and shape our intellectual view of the world. This work is part of the 'Linguistik - Impulse & Tendenzen' series, volume 19, providing deep insights into the power of semantics within academic environments.

Key Features

Part of the specialized Linguistik - Impulse & Tendenzen series from De Gruyter.
