Abstract:

This book analyzes the construct of advanced proficiency in second language
learning by bringing together empirical research from numerous linguistic
domains and methodological traditions. Focusing on the dynamic nature of
language use, the volume explores diverse manifestations of high-level second
language Spanish, including performance on standardized proficiency
assessments, acquisition of late-acquired linguistic structures, sophisticated
language use in context, and individual differences. Chapters relate empirical
findings to current definitions of advancedness, challenging scholars and
practitioners to re-consider existing conceptualizations, and propose possible
directions for future research and teaching with second language speakers of
Spanish. By addressing larger issues in the field of second language learning,
the volume is a valuable reference for language teachers, scholars,
professionals and students with an interest in second language acquisition
generally, and second language Spanish, more specifically.
