This type of knowledge enables interventions and agency, as knowing how language works within a culture makes it possible to consciously accept it or to influence and shape it into the future. The various chapters seek to explore social contexts and the norms, values and practices of Japanese culture through the language choices in analysed texts in literature, education, the workplace and in print-based media. These genres collectively form part of the cultural fabric of Japan. The book represents a first step in documenting a selected set of Japanese genres from a social semiotic perspective. It will be of interest to students and scholars in a wide range of linguistic fields, such as Japanese descriptive linguistics, pragmatics, sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, systemic functional linguistics and applied linguistics. It should also appeal to teachers and learners of Japanese and to media commentators, students of literature, cultural studies and journalism. 588 0 Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on January 03, 2018). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Japanese language|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh85069643|xVariation|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005083|zJapan.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78089021-781 650 0 Language and culture|zJapan.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008106640 650 0 Japanese language|xSocial aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008122227 650 0 Mass media|zJapan.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008107501 650 7 Japanese language|xVariation.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/981779 650 7 Japanese language.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 981565 650 7 Language and culture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 992135 650 7 Japanese language|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/981726 650 7 Mass media.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1011219 651 7 Japan.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204082 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Thomson, Elizabeth A.|q(Elizabeth Anne),|d1961-|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2006096743|eeditor. 700 1 Sano, Motoki,|d1980-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n2009074088|eeditor. 700 1 De Silva Joyce, Helen,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no00030555|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tMapping genres, mapping culture. |dAmsterdam ; Philadelphia : John Benjamins Publishing Company, [2017]|z9789027256867|w(DLC) 2017030628 |w(OCoLC)992391067 830 0 Pragmatics & beyond ;|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n42019550|vnew ser., 281. 830 0 Pragmatics & beyond.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n42019550 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1640340|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
