Social Meaning and Linguistic Variation: Theorizing the Third Wave

In 2021, Emma Moore, Rob Podesva and I published an edited volume to establish a new theoretical and empirical foundation for what Penelope Eckert (2012) has called the Third Wave of research in variationist sociolinguistics. The book aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the the subfield, drawing on a wide variety of cultural and linguistic contexts. Each chapter, written by a leader in the field, posits a unique theoretical claim about social meaning and presents new empirical data. The volume makes a case for why attending to social meaning is vital to the study of variation while also providing a foundation from which variationists can productively engage with the study of semiotics and social meaning. We dedicate this volume to our colleague, mentor, and friend, Penny Eckert. Each chapter has grown from a seed that she has planted and nurtured with passionate intellect. This book exists because of her profound influence on the field in which we work and her profound influence on each of us personally.
