Abstract:

This book explores English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) use in online interaction
within virtual communities constituted by fans of popular culture texts who
engage in creative writing inspired by such texts. Emerging from globalization
processes, ELF, computer-mediated-communication, and fandom are here
conceptualized as postmodern phenomena, characterized by fluidity, hybridity,
and translocal practices, which include the exploitation of plurilingual
resources on the part of non-native users communicating in English.

This study adopts and applies the notions of linguistic heteroglossia and
super-diversity to the qualitative analysis of a fan fiction corpus
constituted of online-published stories inspired by Japanese media texts, in
which fan writers bring their sociocultural and linguistic repertoires to bear
on their stories, interspersing narration and dialogue with non-English
language elements to fulfil social, narrative, and pragmatic functions.
