Abstract:

Covering both traditional topics and innovative approaches, this
textbook constitutes a comprehensive introduction to English
sociolinguistics. Reflecting the field's breadth and diversity, it
guides students through the development of research on language and
society over the last sixty years, as well as global trends and
related fields such as World Englishes, language politics, language
and inequality, and translanguaging. It features practical activities,
for both individual work and in-class discussion, as well as vignettes
introducing specific case studies, additional information on 'out of
the box' topics, key terms, and examples from around the world and
various social settings. Inspiring, personal and authoritative
interviews with leading sociolinguists conclude the book. Assuming
only a basic understanding of the English sound system and its
grammar, and supported online by additional activities and selected
model answers, this is the ideal text for undergraduates wanting an
accessible and modern introduction to the field.

Written In: English (eng)
