Greetings from Australia
I am Amanda Burns (personal email address [log in to unmask])
I am presently undertaking post graduate studies in the Italian department
at the University of Melbourne. My interest areas fall under the broader
category of Il sessismo nella lingua Italiana. In '96 I undertook an
analysis of mass market magazines incorporating the guidelines found in
the report of Alma Sabatini 'Il sessismo nella lingua Italiana' issued in
1987. The results of my research were included in my MA prelim. thesis of
the same year 'Il sessismo nella lingua Italiana delle riviste
settimanale'. I have also prepared two papers on my study - 'The Next
Chapter - la questione della lingua contd.' and 'The Unexpected Subject -
Alma Sabatini revisited'. My current project involves an analysis of
gender representation - linguistically and contextually - in Italian
school texts. I would greatly appreciate any contact from those working on
sexism or feminism.
