Abstract:

Innovative and interdisciplinary in approach, this book explores the role of
the mother tongue in second language learning. It brings together
contributions from a diverse team of authors, to showcase a range of
Francophone perspectives from the fields of linguistics, psychology,
cross-cultural psychiatry, psychoanalysis, translation studies, literature,
creative writing, the neurosciences, and more. The book introduces a major new
concept: the (M)other tongue, and shows its relevance to language learning and
pediatrics in a multicultural society. The first chapter explores this concept
from different angles, and the subsequent chapters present a range of
theoretical and practical perspectives, including counselling case studies,
literary examples and creative plurilingual pedagogies, to highlight how this
theory can inform practical approaches to language learning. Engaging and
accessible, readers will find new ideas and methods to adopt to their own
thinking and practices, whether their background is in language and
linguistics, psychiatry, psychology, or neuroscience.
