[Linganth] Much Belated Reading List Compilation_Migration, Language, and Politics

[Dick, Hilary]

Dear Colleagues--

I am writing to send along a much-too-belated compilation of the source
suggestions I received to my query of January (see below). The compilation
is attached; it includes both suggestions from the list as well as related
readings that were assigned in the class.

I apologize for the long delay and I thank everyone who wrote with
suggestions. Hopefully some of you might find this list useful as the fall
semester begins.

Yours,
Hilary
