Linguistic ethnography in the sociolinguistically complex context of a Western Paraná community: backward into the future of some intersectional applied linguistics

ABSTRACT In a chronicle of our increasingly intersectional reflection about a sociolinguistically complex context that we have studied (Jung, 1997, 2003; Jung & Garcez, 2007) having Marilda Cavalcanti as key interlocutor, we look back to earlier work to highlight how the intelligibility we developed about literacy practices in a school community in the West of Paraná has expanded beyond language and gender. In the framework of our reflection on language and political economy (Garcez & Jung, 2021) and particularly in light of the work of Jung and Machado e Silva (2021) on the local festival held annually by the municipality where the school community we studied was located, we revisit our perceptions in a more express and contemporary re-articulation now attentive to axes of differentiation around social class and race. We underscore the privilege of whiteness in our current understandings of local dynamics and in our own positionalities.

摘要
本研究以我们针对某一社会语言学维度的复杂语境所开展的、日益聚焦交叉性的反思梳理为基础，核心对话者为玛丽尔达·卡瓦坎蒂（Marilda Cavalcanti）（Jung, 1997, 2003; Jung & Garcez, 2007）。我们回溯既往研究，旨在阐明我们针对巴拉那州西部某校园社群的读写实践所构建的认知阐释，如何已超越语言与性别范畴。
在我们关于语言与政治经济学的反思框架下（Garcez & Jung, 2021），尤其结合荣格与马查多·埃·席尔瓦（Jung and Machado e Silva, 2021）针对研究所在学区所属市政当局每年举办的地方性节庆活动所开展的研究，我们以更具明晰性且契合当代语境的重新阐释方式，重新审视此前的认知，并着重关注围绕社会阶层与种族形成的分化维度。
我们着重强调，在当前对地方社会动态的认知以及自身的研究者身份站位中，白人特权所占据的优势地位。
