Abstract:

This new book offers a timely and lively appraisal of the concept of
communicative repertoires, resources we use to express who we are when in
dialogue with others. Each chapter describes and illustrates the communicative
resources humans deploy daily, but rarely think about – not only the multiple
languages we use, but how we dress or gesture, how we greet each other or tell
stories, the nicknames we coin, and the mass media references we make – and
how these resources combine in infinitely varied performances of identity.
Rymes also discusses how our repertoires shift and grow over the course of a
lifetime, as well how a repertoire perspective can lead to a rethinking of
cultural diversity and human interaction, from categorizing people’s
differences to understanding how our repertoires can expand and overlap with
other, thereby helping us to find common ground and communicate in
increasingly multicultural schools, workplaces, markets, and social spheres.
