Linguistic Injustice. The Fragility of women and girls' voices in sexist contexts
Résumé
My paper deals with the fragility of women and girls' voices in sexist
contexts. I describe this situation as one of linguistic injustice, and I
propose an approach based on Wittgenstein and Cavell's works. I argue that
the characteristic female experience of being silenced when they express
their experiences in sexist contexts can be understood as an enforced lack of
attunement with the community of male locutors.
