Abstract:

Now Available in Paperback!

Sociolinguists have been pursuing connections between language and identity
for several decades. But how are language and identity related in
bilingualism and multilingualism? Mobilizing the most current methodology,
this collection presents new research on language identity and bilingualism
in three regions where Spanish coexists with other languages. The cases are
Spanish-English contact in the United States, Spanish-indigenous language
contact in Latin America, and Spanish-regional language contact in Spain.
This is the first comparativist book to examine language and identity
construction among bi- or multilingual speakers while keeping one of the
languages constant. The sociolinguistic standing of Spanish varies among
the three regions depending whether or not it is a language of prestige.
Comparisons therefore afford a strong constructivist perspective on how
linguistic ideologies affect bi/multilingual identity formation.

Author index   
Subject index   

"This book examines linguistic identity construction in Hispanic bilinguals
and trilinguals in Spain, Latin America and the United States, offering
readers a comprehensive overview of the ways in which identities emerge and
are constantly renegotiated in vastly different settings. It is an exciting
and important addition to the literature on language contact and a "must
read" for anyone who wants to understand the role that linguistic exchanges
play in the construction of identity in general and for those who are
particularly interested in multilingualism in various parts of the
Spanish-speaking world."
 -Guadalupe Valdés, Bonnie Katz Tenenbaum Professor of Education and
Professor of Spanish & Portuguese, Stanford University
