在本文中，我们认为写作作为社会语言学的一个重要的实证研究对象在很大程度上被忽视了。针对写作在社会语言学中历史上被定位的具体方式所产生的后果，我们讨论了将写作重新想象为研究对象的必要性，并对理解和分析写作的主导视角提出了问题。我们利用最近的工作来说明需要解决的三个关键挑战：首先，超越“标准”和“错误”方面写作的默认立场；其次，将分析的目光扩展到写作的单一模式之外；第三，避免单一时刻和生产地点的特权。最后，我们概述了特刊中的论文以及它们寻求将社会语言学重新定位为写作研究的方式。
In this paper, we argue that writing has largely been ignored as a significant empirical object of study in sociolinguistics. Pointing to the consequences of the specific ways in which writing has been positioned historically within sociolinguistics, we discuss the need to re‐imagine writing as an object of study and problematize the dominant lenses through which writing is understood and analyzed. We draw on recent work to illustrate three key challenges that need to be addressed: firstly, to move beyond a default position on writing in terms of ‘standard’ and ‘error’; secondly, to extend the analytic gaze beyond a monomodal orientation towards writing; and thirdly to avoid the privileging of single moments and sites of production. We conclude by giving an overview of the papers in the special issue and the ways in which they seek to reorient sociolinguistics towards the study of writing.
