Sociolinguistics and language creativity
Storytelling and story-acting
In the light of sustained interest in the potential value of young children’s narrative play, this article examines Vivian Gussin Paley’s approach to storytelling and story-acting, in this case with 3- to 5-year-olds. It scrutinises how children’s narratives are co-constructed during adult–child and peer interactions through spoken and embodied modes, as their stories are scribed by an adult and later dramatised by their peers. Data are drawn fro…
Introduction
This special issue of Applied Linguistics was produced in the context of, and in response to, the recent surge of interest in everyday creativity in language, and the potential for continuities between such everyday creativity and ‘high culture’ literary language (e.g. Tannen 1989; Cook 1997, 2000; Crystal 1998; Carter 1999, 2004; Norrick 2001; Goddard 2003; Carter and McCarthy 2004; Maybin and Swann 2006). Applied linguistic research has done a …

Richard Kelly Tipping belongs to a generation of Australian poets who learned their trade in the late 1960s, at a time when, especially in America, the attitudes of late Romanticism were yielding to a new and broader conception of poetry. The creative imagination which had dominated every phase of Romanticism, from Coleridge to the Modernists and from the Modernists to Wallace Stevens, had been so thoroughly established as the interpretive princi…
Speaking Fundamental Frequency
Previous correlational studies have found no relationship between speaker height, weight and speaking fundamental frequency, although it has often been claimed that listeners can correctly identify the height, weight, and bodily build of speakers and that voice pitch is one of the cues used. In this study various social factors were controlled for, and contrasting samples of speech from each subject were analysed. Twelve men and 15 women, drawn f…
