Resumo: This essay, an “interview alternative”, aims to present an overview of Sally McConnell-Ginet´s perspectives on sociolinguistic research since she entered linguistics via the study of mathematical logic and analytic Anglo-American philosophy of language. The author tells us about her perception of linguistic diversity since she was a child, her research on language and gender issues, her work with Penelope Eckert, among others. She also highlights her resistance to the temptation to seek a ‘total’ theory of language in social and political life and, instead, her attention to the valuable insights made not only by a wide range of voices and research programs with different theoretical orientations and from different disciplines, but also by those of non-specialists whose informal observations and reactions can sometimes be important in suggesting new and fruitful paths of inquiry.

A autora conta-nos sobre sua percepção da diversidade linguística desde criança, suas pesquisas sobre as questões de linguagem e gênero, seu trabalho com Penelope Eckert, entre outros. Ela também destaca sua resistência à tentação de buscar uma teoria "total" da linguagem na vida social e política e, em vez disso, sua atenção aos valiosos insights feitos não só por uma ampla gama de vozes e programas de pesquisa com diferentes orientações teóricas e de diferentes disciplinas, mas também por aqueles de não especialistas cujas observações e reações informais podem às vezes ser importantes para sugerir novos e frutíferos caminhos de investigação.ANPOLL2021-09-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/159510.18309/ranpoll.v52iesp.1595Revista da Anpoll; Vol. 52 No. esp (2021): GT de Sociolinguística da ANPOLL, 35 anos depois: reflexões e cenários; 249-257Revista da Anpoll; v. 52 n. esp (2021): GT de Sociolinguística da ANPOLL, 35 anos depois: reflexões e cenários; 249-2571982-78301414-756410.18309/ranpoll.v52iespreponame:Revista da ANPOLL (Online)instname:Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)instacron:ANPOLLenghttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/1595/1182Copyright (c) 2021 Revista da Anpollhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMcConell-Ginet, Sally2022-01-31T23:25:41Zoai:ojs.revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br:article/1595Revistahttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/indexONGhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/oairevistadaanpoll@gmail.com1982-78301414-7564opendoar:2023-01-13T09:48:58.017053Revista da ANPOLL (Online) - Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)false
