This book was released on 2014-11-10 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers collected in this volume discuss applied, pedagogical and ideological issues related to language use in selected countries in post-colonial Anglophone Africa. The collection represents new voices in linguistics from Cameroon, Ghana, Kenya and Nigeria, and is structured in four sections, covering the following themes: • languages in contact • language identity, ideology and policy • communication and issues of intelligibility • language in education The volume discusses the linguistic paradoxes and complexities that have emerged from the contact between English, (and/or) French and indigenous African languages. Some of the papers collected here discuss the characteristics, functions and peculiarities of the emerging varieties of languages that have developed in these post-colonial African States. Furthermore, the book offers empirical data on up-to-date research drawn from the expertise of budding and established scholars in the areas under discussion, and demonstrates the rich body of research that is developing in post-colonial Africa. Some of the areas covered in this volume include the linguistic products of bilingualism in Cameroon, Ghana, Kenya, and new linguistic and sociocultural borders of Cameroonian Pidgin-Creole, which bridge the ideological gap between English and French speaking communities in Cameroon, unofficial language policy and language planning in the country and discourse choices in Cameroonian English. This book is an ideal resource for graduate students and researchers interested in the areas of sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, discourse analysis and World Englishes.

Book excerpt: "In an appraisal of official bilingualism, Matthew Hayday demonstrates that the language programs and policies initiated by the Trudeau government supported French-Canadian and Acadian minority communities. He argues that these policies enabled the development of minority language education systems and laid the foundations for the language rights contained in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms." --Résumé de l'éditeur.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce premier tome de la serie Le nom des langues, Les enjeux de la nomination d'une langue, presente une dizaine d'etudes de cas concernant: 1. les enjeux scientifiques de la nomination (en anglais, les emplois du terme language lui-meme, puis la nomination, le classement, le denombrement des langues en francais, du XVIIIeme siecle a aujourd'hui); 2. les enjeux de l'institution d'une langue (etudies dans les cas de la langue francaise-romane, de celui du kurde dans les textes legislatifs turcs, de celui de la denomination des langues chez les parlementaires francais en 1994); 3. les enjeux politiques et ideologiques de la nomination (pour l'Europe: cas du breton, des langues en Alsace, des emplois de deutsch et nederlands, et cas du macedonien; pour l'Hispano-Amerique: cas du pano; pour l'Afrique: cas du nom des langues au Mali); 4. les investissements singuliers (nommer le latin et dire ce terme; le recit mythique de la nomination de l'occitan par J. Deteil, dans La Deltheillerie). La categorie de langue resulte d'une elaboration, d'une construction qui ne denote pas un objet naturel: il s'agit en somme de savoir qui a procede a l'acte de delimiter et de nommer l'entite linguistique consideree, dans quelles circonstances et dans quel but. Le nom d'une langue est arbitraire et chacun se revele un mille-feuilles de significations. Ce feuilletage est sans fin car chacun - de l'homme de la rue au linguiste, a l'homme politique - y ajoute ou bien en retranche ce qui arrange la fin qu'il poursuit. Le nom d'une langue est susceptible de mener une trajectoire independante de l'histoire de cette langue, des parlers ainsi designes, et des locuteurs qui la parlent et qui, dans certains cas, manient sa ou ses formes ecrites. Le nom d'une langue est ainsi toujours le nom d'une autre realite, geographique, ethnique, linguistique, institutionnelle, sociolinguistique, et ainsi de suite.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a new perspective on sociolinguistics in Africa. Eschewing the traditional approach which looks at the interaction between European and African languages in the wake of colonialism, this book turns its focus to the social dynamics of African languages and African societies. Divided into two sections, the book offers insight into the crucial topics such as: language vitality and endangerment, the birth of ‘new languages’, a sociolinguistics of the city, language contact and language politics. It spans the continent from Algeria to South Africa, Guinea-Bissau to Kenya and addresses the following broad themes: Language variation, contact and changeThe dynamics of urban, rural and youth languagesPolicy and practice This book provides an alternative to the Eurocentric view of sociolinguistic dynamics in Africa, and will make an ideal read or supplemental textbook for scholars and students in the field/disciplines of African languages and linguistics, and those interested in southern theory or ‘sociolinguistics in the margins’.

This book was released on 2015-09-10 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical Perspectives on Conflict in Caribbean Societies of the Late 20th and Early 21st Centuries intervenes to enrich existing scholarship on postcolonial Caribbean literature and art. Using interdisciplinary, cultural studies and Caribbean cultural studies methodologies, in addition to more classical literary readings of works, this book adopts a fresh approach to conflict, bringing a variety of new perspectives to the analysis of conflict dynamics in the Caribbean. Focusing on issues of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, as well as on contemporary representation and analysis of conflict related to other periods in the development of Caribbean societies, this volume provides explorations of conflict in the Caribbean region, in the transnational relationships between this region and North America, and in the transcolonial relationships between the French Caribbean and France. This bi-lingual publication will particularly appeal to scholars and students of Caribbean Literature in English and French, Postcolonial and African Diasporic Literatures and Cultures, Feminist Literary Studies, and Contemporary Art Studies. Critical Perspectives on Conflict in Caribbean Societies of the Late 20th and Early 21st Centuries offers studies of recent fiction and works of art by established and emerging Caribbean writers and artists. In addition, as articles are dedicated to discussions of particular authors, such as Earl Lovelace, Ramabai Espinet, Edwidge Danticat, Raphaël Confiant, Patrick Chamoiseau, Gerty Dambury, and Gisèle Pineau, the range of perspectives found in this volume covers fiction published by male and female writers from both the Francophone and Anglophone Caribbean.

Book excerpt: Focusing on language's political power, these essays discuss how representation, through language norms, plays and court spectacles, manipulations and adaptations of texts and images, both constitutes and reflects a cultural milieu. The volume brings together various disciplinary approaches, offering a complex appreciation of these questions. While a core of the essays focuses on France, the contributions engage a broad range of geographical contexts, from Byzantium to eastern Germany and England from the early centuries of the Common Era to the seventeenth century, revealing the prevalence and persistence of the key interconnected issues of images and authority. Contributors: Carla Bozzolo; Philippe Caron; Robert L. A. Clark; Paul Cohen; Thomas Conley; Jean-Philippe Genet; Douglas Kibbee; Gillette Labory; Nicole Pons; Mara R. Wade.

Book excerpt: Language Policy and Planning in the Mediterranean World is a collection of the best papers presented at the MedLPLP conference held at the University of Cyprus in 2009, enriched with invited contributions on the same topic. The book presents a panorama of situations with countries such as France, Germany, Cyprus, Malta, Italy, Spain, Poland, Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Albania, Romania and Serbia. It explores various aspects of the weight and ecology of the Mediterranean languages, discusses LPP in the light of international law and the protection of human rights, bilingual education and foreign language acquisition policies. It also addresses the issue of feminization in a broad range of Mediterranean languages comparing French, Italian, Spanish, and, for the first time, Standard and Cypriot Greek. Finally, the book also discusses language revival and renovation policies, language planning in the public space, as well as cases of micro-language management. The volume is an excellent source of information for scholars and students of LPP interested in the synchrony and diachrony of Mediterranean languages, in aspects of LPP activity in various Mediterranean countries and in specific LPP processes involving several languages within the area.

It ends with reflections on the use and abuse of Anthropology.
