Language and Identity Workshop IV.  Language in Public Space: Identity
and the Urban Environment

The use of language in public space is an important indicator of
identity, which shows how languages are valued in a given community in
both practical and symbolic manners. In this workshop, we will explore
how identity is visually manifested in the physical and digital
landscapes through the examination of the language of public signs,
advertising billboards, street names, place names, and so on.
