Abstract :
[en] The text reviews critically the absence of a perspective on materiality (and objects) in most current sociolinguistic research. The authors discuss what an object-oriented perspective can offer for humanities and social science research. Highlighting the role of objects in human interaction, they identify three types of objects (bounded, boundary and bonding) that have emerged from the case studies in this volume as playing a crucial part in trans-contextual meaning making.
