Description
Entangled Englishes offers an innovative approach to understanding the ongoing globalization of English by examining it in relation to its multiple, complex, and oftentimes unexpected entanglements.
The book explores entangled narratives of English that are imprinted and in circulation in various global contexts. The chapters examine the globalization of English as a phenomenon that is invariably entangled with and through various languages; cultural forms such as ideological commitments and social norms,;or even (im)material objects such as food, signage, and attire. Offering a unique range of perspectives from leading scholars worldwide, this innovative volume presents exciting new research directions for anyone interested in the historical and contemporary complexities of language.
This text is key reading for students and researchers of World Englishes, sociolinguistics, multilingualism, and linguistic anthropology.
