Mills, S. (2012). Gender issues: Freminist linguistic analysis. London: Equinox.Gender Matters is a collection of various essays on the analysis of feminist linguistic texts, by Sara Mills. Mills develops methods of analysis of literary and non-literary texts, as well as conversational analysis based on a feminist approach. The author draws on data from her collection of essays collected over the past two decades on feminism in the 1990s. The essays focus on gender issues, the representation of gender in reading, writing and public speaking. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of feminist analysis of sexism in literature and the relationship between gender and politeness. The article is informative for my research paper, as my topic will be about linguistic text analysis and the differences between women reading and writing based on discourse analysis within the linguistic, psychological, of the audience of case studies and surveys. The book would be useful, especially the last three essays which deal with gender, public speaking, the issue of politeness and impoliteness in public speaking. Mills' analysis is not complete without including the idea of global notions of both women and men, to see if women and men write and read the same globally. Therefore, an update would enrich the discussion section of the book. Although Mills addresses the topic of class and race in language and public speaking, I will only examine the role of language playing a role in making or reducing gender in literary, non-literary texts, and conversation. Butler, J. (2006 ). Gender issues. New York: Routledge.Gender Trouble, published in 1990 by Judith Butler, argues that feminism was and continues to be based on the assumption that "women" are... means of paper... significant evidence for my thesis of research. indicates that the nature of gender/sex enjoys broad consensus. The latter is significant for the original sex differences in brain structure and the organized role through differential prenatal hormonal exposures between the sexes through the term used in the article as (the “hard-wiring” paradigm). The article limits itself to the scientific gap that neuroscientific research on sex and gender presents as there is a lack of analysis that goes beyond the observed results. The article draws on neuroscience studies and how it approaches gender, but suggests that gender should be examined through social, cultural, ethnic, and racial studies. This article will not form the basis of my research but will be used as secondary material. Neuroscientific evidence will be used to support my thesis and will be used as an example.
