Abstract

In this chapter I will suggest how to "think dialogically" about one particular cultural tradition, that of language studies mainly within one scholarly discipline, namely linguistics. Even if my account will not be a straightforward application of Bakhtinian thinking, it is, I would argue, very much in the spirit of Bakhtin.
