Alpha MasculinityThe Evidentiary Bases of Alpha Male Discourse

Alpha Masculinity: The Evidentiary Bases of Alpha Male Discourse [This chapter introduces the three corpora forming the basis of linguistic and discursive description, interpretation, and analysis in subsequent chapters, each containing a unique manifestation of the Alpha male. These include an online, sociocommercial group targeting younger males, self-published gay erotica, and a pop psychology volume instructing men as to what women supposedly want from their relationships with Alpha male partners. The chapter discusses methodologies of corpus selection and delimitation, as well as the exclusion of other, potentially interesting, sources and provides a general orientation to each textual archive.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[This chapter introduces the three corpora forming the basis of linguistic and discursive description, interpretation, and analysis in subsequent chapters, each containing a unique manifestation of the Alpha male. These include an online, sociocommercial group targeting younger males, self-published gay erotica, and a pop psychology volume instructing men as to what women supposedly want from their relationships with Alpha male partners. The chapter discusses methodologies of corpus selection and delimitation, as well as the exclusion of other, potentially interesting, sources and provides a general orientation to each textual archive.]
