Abstract:

This collection represents contemporary perspectives on important aspects of
research into the language in the public space, known as the Linguistic
Landscape (LL), with the focus on the negotiation and contestation of
identities.

>From four continents, and examining vital issues across North America, Africa,
Europe and Asia, scholars with notable experience in LL research are drawn
together in this, the latest collection to be produced by core researchers in
this field. Building on the growing published body of research into LL work,
the fifteen data chapters test, challenge and advance this sub-field of
sociolinguistics through their close examination of languages as they appear
on the walls and in the public spaces of sites from South Korea to South
Africa, from Italy to Israel, from Addis Ababa to Zanzibar. The geographic
coverage is matched by the depth of engagement with developments in this
burgeoning field of scholarship. As such, this volume is an up-to-date
collection of research chapters, each of which addresses pertinent and
important issues within their respective geographic spaces.
