Her research interests include gender, politics, violence against women and corpus linguistics

About the Book :

This book analyses gendered language in Italian, shedding light on how the Italian language constructs and reproduces the social imbalance between women and men, and presenting indirect and direct instances of asymmetrical constructions of gender in public and private roles.

The author examines linguistic treatments of women in politics and the media, as well as the gendered crime of femminicidio, i.e. the killing of women by their (former) partners. Through the combination of corpus linguistics, surveys, and discourse analysis, she establishes a new approach to the study of gendered Italian, a framework which can be applied to other languages and epistemological sites. This book will be of particular interest to students and scholars of socio linguistics, language and gender, discourse analysis, Italian and other Romance languages.

Answer:

Character displacement.

Explanation:

Character displacement is an evolutionary divergence that occurs to two similar type of species that live or inhabit an enviroment. As with all living organisms, natural selection favors those who can change, adapt, evolve in any way (could be a behavior, morphological or physiological change) to reduce their competitive pressure for resources, increasing their chance for survival. Another very interesting fact is that, even if character displacement occurs in many species living in the same enviroment, if said enviroment is changed (just like in the example) the displacement will be undone. As in the exercise, when in the enviroment both types of beetles seek prey without the other. But, in the laboratory, both are nocturnal. This is a trait of character displacement in which if the enviroment factor is changed, it might dissapear.
