Reterritorializing Linguistic Landscapes

Anyone interested in LL must attend to the inherent instability of the spaces they examine, the meanings they glean, the fragile connection between the two, and their own mutable relationship to all of the above. This volume is valuable precisely because it does not shy away from this necessity. * Linguistic Landscape * This volume succeeds in combining in-depth case studies of linguistic landscape phenomena with detailed engagement with current theoretical models. The essay questions and ideas for projects at the end of each chapter will be invaluable for instructors of courses incorporating linguistic landscape material. * Amy Dahlstrom, Associate Professor of Linguistics, University of Chicago, USA * Reterritorializing Linguistic Landscapes is a provocative collection that holds up a mirror to the field itself. It shines a light on theoretical and methodological challenges with contributions that represent the leading edge of innovation and creativity. In this book, we see linguistic landscape analysis maturing. * Francis M. Hult, Professor, University of Maryland, Baltimore County, USA * This is an excellent way to approach the study of the linguistic landscape. The volume presents a vivid picture of the theoretical and methodological debates within the field and is truly interdisciplinary, with insightful contributions that reterritorialize linguistic landscapes. With a wide range of contexts, it is essential reading for researchers and professionals who are interested in languages and multimodality in the public space. * Jasone Cenoz, Professor of Education, University of the Basque Country, Spain *
