Children's voices : talk, knowledge, and identity
Palgrave Macmillan, Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire; New York, (2006)
Abstract
"Children's Voices shows how children at the brink of adolescence use collaborative verbal strategies, stories of personal experience and the reworked voices of others to investigate their social world and forge their own identities. Drawing on linguistic ethnography and poststructuralist theory, Janet Maybin develops an analytic approach which can unpick the dynamic complexity of children's different uses of talk across the school day."--Jacket.
