Exploring Digital Communication
Metrolingualism
Language in Action
Language in the City
Caroline Tagg, University of Birmingham, UK
Series: Routledge Introductions to Applied Linguistics
This textbook covers real world issues pertaining to digital
communication, and explores how linguistic research addresses
these challenges. Using the 'back-to-front' structure of the
Routledge Introductions to Applied Linguistics series, the book is
divided into three sections (Problems and Practices;
Interventions; and Theory). The book also seeks to demystify any
perceived divide between online and offline communication.
Topics covered include text messaging, multiliteracies,
and online writing communities. Additional features include
tasks, along with a task commentary, a glossary and annotated
further reading suggestions.

Alastair Pennycook, University of Technology, New South
Wales, Australia and Emi Otsuji, University of Technology,
Sydney, Australia
In their new book, Pennycook and Otsuji introduce the notion
of 'metrolingualism': the use of language in urban contexts by
people of differing linguistic backgrounds. Due to increasing
urban diversity, the use of language within cities is changing.
The authors explore language and linguistics within a number
of contemporary situations, including markets, the kitchen and
construction sites. Using different global cities as examples, the
book engages with current debates about multilingualism and
develops a new way of thinking about language. This textwill
be of interest to postgraduate students and researchers of
sociolinguistics and applied linguistics.

A History of Applied Linguistics
Language and Neoliberalism
From 1980 to the present
Kees de Bot, University of Groningen, The Netherlands
How has the field of Applied Linguistics developed over the last
30 years? Who were the leaders who have pushed the agenda?
What were the main themes in research? What has been the
impact of Applied Linguistics on language teaching?
Drawing on interviews with forty leading international figures
supplemented with questionnaires from another fifty, this book
answers these questions and more and forms a history of Applied
Linguistics from 1980.
This is essential reading for anyone studying or researching
Applied Linguistics and will be of interest to those in the related
area of English Language Teaching.

Marnie Holborow, Dublin City University, Ireland
Series: Language, Society and Political Economy
Language and Neoliberalism examines the ways in which
neoliberalism, or economic liberalism, finds expression in
language. In this groundbreaking original study, Holborow shows
at once the misleading character of ideological meaning and
the underlying social reality from which that meaning
emerges. Post-crash, the capitalist market continues to be
crisis-prone and in that context the neoliberal ideology remains
contested.
Drawing on Vološinov and Bakhtin, Williams and Gramsci, and
introducing concepts from Marxist political economy, Language
and Neoliberalism is essential reading for all interested in the intersection of linguistics/
applied linguistics and politics.

COGNITIVE LINGUISTICS
TEXTBOOK
Dummy text to keep placeholder
Cognitive Neuroscience of Language
David Kemmerer, Purdue University, USA
This textbook the most wide-ranging and pedagogically practical
survey of the most important developments in the study of
language from a neuroscientific perspective. It guides students
through all of the major areas of investigation, drawing heavily
on prominent theoretical models and illustrating how such
frameworks are supported, and sometimes challenged, by
experiments employing diverse brain mapping techniques.
Intended for upper-level students, it nevertheless requires no
previous knowledge of neuroscience or linguistics, defining
technical terms and explaining important principles from both
disciplines along the way.

The Articulate Mammal
An Introduction to Psycholinguistics
Jean Aitchison, University of Oxford, UK
Series: Routledge Classics
Where does language come from? Is language restricted to
humans? How do children acquire language so quickly? Why
are Noam Chomsky's theories of language so influential - and is
he right? A classic in its field for almost forty years, The Articulate
Mammal is a brilliant introduction to psycholinguistics. In lucid
prose Jean Aitchison introduces and demystifies the
fundamentals of psycholinguistics: the possibility of a ‘language
gene’; post-Chomskyan theories of language; language within
an evolutionary framework; how children become acclimatized
to speech rhythms before birth; the acquisition of verbs;
construction and cognitive grammar; and aphasia and dementia.

Metonymy and Language
The New Psychology of Language
A New Theory of Linguistic Processing
Cognitive and Functional Approaches to Language Structure, Volume
I
Charles Denroche, University of Westminster, UK
Series: Routledge Studies in Linguistics
Metonymy and Language presents a new theory of language
and communication in which the central focus is on the concept
of metonymy, the recognition of partial matches and overlaps.
Through the use of original data sets and rigorous primary
research, Denroche characterizes metonymy as key to
understanding why language is so ‘fit for purpose’ and how it
achieves such great subtlety and flexibility. This study develops
the notion of ‘metonymic competence,’ and shows the possible
impact of metonymic processing theory on professional fields,
such as language teaching and translator training.

Stories, Meaning, and Experience
The New Psychology of Language
Narrativity and Enaction
Cognitive and Functional Approaches to Language Structure, Volume
II
Yanna B. Popova, Case Western Reserve University, USA
Series: Routledge Studies in Rhetoric and Stylistics
This book presents a complete reconsideration of the nature of narrative organization
developed in the framework of a new and comprehensive approach to cognitive science:
enaction. It argues that narrative is but one form of conceptual organization for human
minds, the other being categorical organization. Complex literary narratives, as well as
visual art, are instances in which both types of organization coexist, and in later chapters
the model is elaborated in relation to stories by Henry James and Gabriel García Márquez.
Popova’s interpretation of narrative thus cuts across many of the core issues in fields such
as narratology, cognitive psychology, and traditional story grammars.

Language, Corpus and Empowerment
Applications to deaf education, healthcare and online discourses
Luke Collins, University of Nottingham, UK
Series: Routledge Applied Corpus Linguistics
Language, Corpus and Empowerment applies a novel corpus-driven approach to the
exploration of the concept of empowerment in healthcare. Using data from a video
intervention delivered to families of deaf children, the author proposes a method for finding
evidence of empowerment in language use, as well as assessing the effects of the
intervention on the family. This new methodology provides a valuable development in
assessing the impact of healthcare interventions and the language of empowerment.
Insightful and ground-breaking, Language, Corpus and Empowerment is essential reading

Unified Discourse Analysis
Discourse Analysis beyond the Speech Event
Stanton Wortham, University of Pennsylvania, USA and
Angela Reyes, Hunter College, City University of New York,
USA
Language, Reality, Virtual Worlds and Video Games
James Paul Gee, Arizona State University, USA
Discourse Analysis is becoming increasingly "multimodal",
concerned primarily with the interplay of language, image and
sound. In this ground-breaking new textbook, best-selling author
and experienced gamer, James Paul Gee, sets out a new theory
and method of discourse analysis which applies to language,
the real world, science and video games. Rather than analysing
the language of video games, this book uses discourse analysis
to study games as communicational forms. Written in a highly
accessible style and drawing on a wide range of games, from
World of Warcraft to Tetris, this engaging textbook is essential
reading for students in discourse analysis, new media and digital
culture.
Discourse Analysis beyond the Speech Event introduces a new
approach to discourse analysis. In this innovative work, Wortham
and Reyes argue that discourse analysts should look beyond
fixed speech events and consider the development of discourses
over time. Drawing on theories and methods from linguistic
anthropology and related fields, this book is the first to present
a systematic methodological approach to conducting discourse
analysis of linked events, allowing researchers to understand
not only individual events but also the patterns that emerge
across them.This book is essential reading for advanced students
and researchers working in the area of discourse analysis.

an essential introductory textbook to the field of Critical
Discourse Analysis (CDA). It focusses both on how language
functions in maintaining and changing power relations in
modern society and the ways of analysing language which can
reveal these processes.
In this twenty-fifth anniversary edition, Norman Fairclough brings
the discussion up-to-date and shows both the importance of
the book in the development of CDA over the past three decades
and how language and power relations have changed due to
major socio-economic changes.
It remains vital reading for all students of critical discourse analysis and related courses.
Assuming no prior knowledge of linguistics, this title presents
James Paul Gee’s unique integrated approach which
incorporates both a theory of language-in-use and a method of
research. Updated throughout, the fourth edition includes two
new chapters: ‘What is Discourse?’ to further understanding of
the topic, as well as a concluding section. A new companion
website www.routledge.com/cw/gee features a frequently asked
questions section, additional tasks and a glossary. The book
includes perspectives from a variety of approaches and
disciplines to help students and scholars from a range of
backgrounds to formulate their own views on discourse and
engage in their own discourse analysis.

Discourse and Democracy
Critical Analysis of the Language of Government
Michael Farrelly, University of Hull, UK
Series: Routledge Critical Studies in Discourse
This critical examination of democracy in advanced liberal
nations combines close analysis of discourse with theories of
democracy and the State. Building on the work of Fairclough
and others, the book analyzes the paradox of pervasive reference
to democracy in legitimizing political action versus the
weakening of actual democratic practice.

Discourses of Ideology and Identity
Social Media and the Iranian Election Protests
Chris Featherman, Cornish College of the Arts, USA
Series edited by Michelle Lazar
Series: Routledge Critical Studies in Discourse
In this monograph, Chris Featherman adopts a discourse
analytical approach to explore the ways in which social
movement ideologies and identities are discursively constructed
in new and old media, focused around a case study of the 2009
Iranian presidential election protests. Through qualitative analysis
of a corpus of activists’ Twitter tweets and Flickr uploads,
Featherman argues that activists’ social media discourses and
protesters’ symbolic and tactical borrowing of global English
contribute to micronarratives of globalization, while also calling
into question master narratives about Iran commonly found in
mainstream Western media accounts.

Language and Masculinities
Performances, Intersections, Dislocations
Edited by Tommaso M. Milani, University of the
Witwatersrand, South Africa
Series edited by Michelle Lazar
Series: Routledge Critical Studies in Discourse
This volume showcases cutting-edge research in the linguistic
and discursive study of masculinities. Overall, the chapters are
linked together by a critical analytical perspectivethat seeks to
understand the relationships between discourse, masculinities
and power. Contributions argue for the need for research on
language and masculinities to expand its remit so as to engage
with "gay masculinities," and consider the ways in which women,
transgendered and intersex individuals also perform a variety of
masculinities. The volume also covers a broad geographical and socio-cultural spectrum,
including work on Brazil, Israel, New Zealand, Singapore, and South Africa.

Exploring World Englishes
Language in a Global Context
Philip Seargeant, The Open University, UK
Series: Routledge Introductions to Applied Linguistics
In this book Philip Seargeant surveys varieties of English existing
within the world today. He examines how English has evolved
to become a ‘global language’ and looks at the political and
cultural history that has influenced this evolution. Beginning
with a discussion of real-life challenges relating to world
Englishes that are faced by language professionals – particularly
in the contexts of language education and language planning
– the book explores and illustrates the ways in which the actual
use and management of English, as well as the beliefs and
ideologies associated with it, play an increasingly important role
in contemporary globalized society.

Lou, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong and Aditi Bhatia, City University of
Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Miriam Sobré-Denton, Southern Illinois University,
Carbondale, US and Nilanjana Bardhan, Southern Illinois
University, Carbondale, US
Series: Routledge Studies in Rhetoric and Communication
This book applies cosmopolitanism to intercultural
communication, emphasizing the postcolonial perspective in
order to raise critical consciousness about the complexities of
intercultural communication in a globalizing world. Moving
intercultural communication studies towards the global in
complex and nuanced ways, it highlights crucial links between
globalization, transnationalism, and cosmopolitanism.
This collection examines and uses discourse to promote a better understanding of culture
and identity, with the primary goal of advancing an understanding of how discourse can
be used to examine social and linguistic issues. Many of the contributions explore how the

Identity and Power in Narratives of Displacement
Interactive Digital Narrative
Katrina M. Powell, Virginia Tech, USA
Series: Routledge Studies in Rhetoric and Communication
In this book, Powell examines the ways that identities are
constructed in displacement narratives based on cases of
eminent domain, natural disaster, and civil unrest, attending
specifically to the rhetorical strategies employed as barriers and
boundaries intersect with individual lives. She provides a unique
method to understand how the displaced move within accepted
and subversive discourses, and how representation is a crucial
component of that movement. In addition, Powell shows how
notions of human rights and the "public good" are often at odds
with individual well-being and result in intriguing intersections
between discourses of power and discourses of identity.

Pronunciation for English as an International
Language
Teaching Chinese Literacy in the Early Years
From research to practice
Ee-Ling Low, National Institute of Education, Singapore
Series: Routledge Research in Language Education
Pronunciation plays a crucial role in learning English as an
international language, yet often remains marginalised by
educators due to a lack of required phonetic and phonological
knowledge. Pronunciation for English as an International
Language bridges the gap between phonetics, phonology and
pronunciation and provides the reader with a research based
guide on how best to teach the English language. The book
follows an easy to follow format which ensures the reader will
have a comprehensive grasp of each given topic by the end of
the chapter.

Ecolinguistics
Acquiring Pragmatics
Language, Ecology and the Stories We Live By
Social and cognitive perspectives
Arran Stibbe, University of Gloucestershire, UK
Sandrine Zufferey, University of Fribourg, Switzerland
The increasingly rapid destruction of the ecological systems that
support life is calling into question some of the fundamental
stories that we live by. Ecolinguistics shows how linguistic analysis
can help reveal these stories, open them up to question, and
contribute to the search for new stories. Bringing together the
latest ecolinguistic studies with new theoretical insights and
practical analyses, this book charts a new course for ecolinguistics
as an engaged form of critical enquiry.
This is essential reading for undergraduates, postgraduates and
researchers working in the areas of Discourse Analysis and
Language and Ecology.
Acquiring Pragmatics introduces the current topics of research
in theoretical pragmatics, and explores the issues facing
language acquisition research and the new experimental designs
which address them. The book also discusses the underlying
methodology, which will help the reader to develop their own
experimental designs. Key topics covered include the interfaces
between pragmatics and language acquisition, the social and
cognitive aspects of pragmatic competence, and the acquisition
of pragmatics in autistic spectrum disorders and second
language acquisition. Acquiring Pragmatics is key reading for
advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying
pragmatics and language acquisition.

The universalist view that acquisition of phonology is guided by
universal principles has been the dominant position for decades.
More recently, an alternative view has brought into focus the
relationship between developmental markedness and
language-specific input frequencies. With entirely original
chapters on non-ambient-like productions by typically and
atypically developing children, and second language learners,
Unusual Productions in Phonology delves deeply into these
competing explanations to show that patterns observed do not
uniquely lend themselves to one or the other explanations.

Peirce
I. A. Richards (Routledge Revivals)
Albert Atkin, Macquarie University, Australia
Series: The Routledge Philosophers
Peirce is regarded as the founder of pragmatism, North America’s
most influential philosophical movement. Albert Atkin introduces
the full spectrum of Peirce’s thought for those coming to his
work for the first time. The book begins with an overview of
Peirce’s life and work and then explains Peirce’s pragmatism and
his pragmatic account of truth. Atkin introduces Peirce’s accounts
of semiotics, logic, and metaphysics - the least understood aspect
of his philosophy. The final chapter considers Peirce’s legacy,
and his influence on the thought of John Dewey and Richard
Rorty, as well as on areas outside philosophy such as linguistics
and mathematics.
His Life and Work
John Paul Russo
Series: Routledge Revivals
A pioneering critic, educator, and poet, I. A. Richards (1893-1979)
helped the English-speaking world decide not only what to read
but how to read it. John Paul Russo draws on close personal
acquaintance with Richards as well as on unpublished materials,
correspondence, and interviews, to write the first biography
(originally published in 1989) of one of last century’s most
influential and many-sided men of letters.

million speakers in India alone, with a long cultural tradition. The dialect presented in this

Introducing Multilingualism
Language, Literacy and Diversity
A Social Approach
Moving Words
Jean-Jacques Weber, University of Luxembourg,
Luxembourg and Kristine Horner, University of Sheffield,

This introductory textbook takes a social and critical approach
to multilingualism. Weber and Horner address the basic
assumptions of contemporary sociolinguistics, including
language as a social construct; language contact and the nature
of language variation; the construction and negotiation of
identity and the differences between individual and societal
multilingualism. Throughout the book the authors use a wide
range of global case studies and provide activities to test
knowledge of the theory. Clearly argued and widely applicable,
this book is essential reading for students and researchers
working in linguistics, anthropology, education, sociology and migration studies.

Series: Routledge Critical Studies in Multilingualism
This book aims at deconstructing and problematizing linguistic
ideologies related to Portuguese in late modernity and
questioning the theoretical presuppositions which have led us
to call Portuguese ‘a language.’ The book covers a wide range
of social, political and historical contexts in which ‘Portuguese’
is used (in Brazil, Canada, East-Timor, England, Portugal,
Mozambique and Uruguay), and considers diverse linguistic
practices. Through this critique, contributors chart new directions
for research on language ideologies and language practices and
consider ways of developing new conceptual compasses that
are better attuned to the sociolinguistic realities of the late modern era.

Global Englishes and Cosmopolitan Relations
Edited by Rosina Márquez Reiter, University of Surrey, UK
and Luisa Martín Rojo, Universidad Autónoma, Spain
Series: Routledge Critical Studies in Multilingualism
This volume brings together scholars in sociolinguistics and the
sociology of new media and mobile technologies who are
working on social and communicative aspects of the Latino
diaspora. They examine the ways in which migrants negotiate
and renegotiate identities through their continued interactions
with their own culture back home, in the host country, in similar
diaspora elsewhere, and with the various "new" cultures of the
receiving country. The book focuses the Latino communities in
urban settings in North America and Latin American
communities in Europe and the Middle East, exploring the role
of migration/diaspora in transforming linguistic practices, ideologies, and identities.

Translingual Practice introduces a new way of looking at the use
of English in a global context. Incorporating recent advances in
multilingual studies, sociolinguistics and new literacy studies, it
challenges traditional approaches in second language acquisition
and English language teaching. The book argues that
multilinguals merge their own languages and values into English,
which opens up various negotiation strategies that help them
decode other unique varieties of English and construct new
norms. This will be essential for those interested in
multilingualism, World Englishes and intercultural
communication.

Southern Denmark, Eva Maagerø, Vestfold University
College, Norway and Elise Seip Tonnessen, Adger University
College, Norway
This is a collection of interviews with the generation of social
semioticians who have taken M.A.K. Halliday’s concept of social
semiotics and developed it further in various directions. This
book highlights their main lines of thought and considers how
they relate to both the original concept of social semiotics and
to each other.
Featuring interviews with leading figures from linguistics,
education and communication studies: Gunther Kress, Theo van
Leeuwen, Jay Lemke, James R. Martin and Christian M.I.M. Matthiessen, this indispensable
overview of the field of social semiotics shows the development of thinking and practice
since Halliday’s early work.

Exploring Translation Theories
A practical guide for translators and translation students
Johann Roturier, principal research engineer at Symantec
Research Labs, Dublin
Series: Translation Practices Explained
This text offers an overview of the technical skills required by
translators working with digital content. It looks at the data
explosion that is characteristic of Web 2.0, the impact of
shortened publishing cycles on the internationalisation and
localisation processes due to the availability of online services,
and the impact of the increasing number of devices that are
being used to consume digital content.
This text will be essential reading for students and researchers
of Translation Studies as well as professional translators.

Framing the Interpreter
Introducing Translation Studies
Towards a visual perspective
Theories and Applications
Edited by Anxo Fernández-Ocampo, University of Vigo,
Spain and Michaela Wolf, University of Graz, Austria
Situations of conflict offer special insights into the history of the
interpreter figure, and specifically the part played in that history
by photographic representations of interpreters. This volume
breaks new ground for image-based research in translation
studies by examining photographic representations that reveal
the interpreter as a socially constructed category. It locates the
interpreter’s mediating efforts at the core of the human
sciences.This book will be of interest to researchers and advanced
students in translation and interpreting studies, as well as to
those working in visual studies, photography, anthropology and
military and conflict studies.

Multiple Translation Communities in Contemporary
Japan
The Dao of Translation
Edited by Beverley Curran, International Christian University,
Japan, Nana Sato-Rossberg, University of East Anglia, UK
and Kikuko Tanabe, Kobe College, Japan
Series: Routledge Advances in Translation Studies
This bookoffers a collection of essays that (1) deepens the
understanding of the cultural and linguistic diversity of
communities in contemporary Japan and how translation
operates in this shifting context and circulates globally by looking
at some of the ways it is theorized and approached as a
significant social, cultural, or political practice, and harnessed by
its multiple agents; (2) draws attention to the multi-platform
translations of cultural productions such as manga; and (3) poses
questions about the range of roles translation has in the
construction, performance, and control of gender roles in Japan.
An East-West Dialogue
Douglas Robinson, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong
Series: Routledge Advances in Translation Studies
In The Dao of Translation, the author puts Daoism (and ancient Confucianism) into dialogue
with nineteenth-century Western theorists of the sign, Charles Sanders Peirce and Ferdinand
de Saussure (and their followers), in order to develop an "icotic" understanding of the
tensions between habit and surprise in the activity of translating. For the first time, the
author discusses both Hartama-Heinonen on Peirce on semiosis as mystical philosophy
and Simeoni on Bourdieu on habitus as agent-based sociology in the same context, bringing
much interest to scholars, both professors and postgrads of translation as well as scholars
of ancient Chinese philosophy.

Translation and Linguistic Hybridity
User-Centered Translation
Constructing World-View
Susanne Klinger, Inonu University, Turkey
Series: Routledge Advances in Translation Studies
This volume outlines a new approach to the study of linguistic
hybridity and its translation in cross-cultural writing. By building
on concepts from narratology, cognitive poetics, stylistics, and
film studies, it explores how linguistic hybridity contributes to
the reader’s construction of the textual agents’ world-view and
how it can be exploited in order to encourage the reader to
empathise with one world-view rather than another and,
consequently, how translation shifts in linguistic hybridity can
affect the world-view that the reader constructs.

Translating for the European Union Institutions
Emma Wagner, Svend Bech, Jesús M. Martínez and
Dorothy Kelly
Series: Translation Practices Explained
The institutions of the European Union employ hundreds of
translators. Why? What do they do? What sort of translation
problems do they have to tackle? Has the language policy of
the European Union been affected by the recent inclusion of
new Member States?
This book answers all those questions. Written by three
experienced translators from the European Commission, it aims
to help general readers, translation students and freelance
translators to understand the European Union institutions and
their work. Although it deals with written rather than spoken translation, much of the
information it gives will be of interest to interpreters too.
This second edition has been updated to reflect the new composition of the EU and changes

Research Methodologies in Translation Studies is divided into four
different chapters, according to whether the research focuses
on the translation product, the process of translation, the
participants involved or the context in which translation takes
place. An introductory chapter discusses issues of reliability,
credibility, validity and ethics. The impact of our research
depends not only on its quality but also on successful
dissemination, and the final chapter therefore deals with what
is also generally the final stage of the research process: producing
a research report.

Corpus Methodologies Explained
The Legal Environment of Translation
An empirical approach to translation studies
Guillermo Cabanellas, CEK, Argentina
Meng Ji, University of Western Australia, Australia
Series: Routledge-WIAS Interdisciplinary Studies
This book offers an overview of the legal rules applicable to
different aspects of translation, allowing translators to form a
broad and coherent picture of the rules applicable in this area.
In addition to a description and analysis of the legal issues and
rules involved, the book also presents hypothetical cases, with
a discussion of the problems they pose and possible solutions.
It explains the theoretical structure of the rules under discussion
as well as their practical implications. The book is sufficiently
accessible to allow lawyers, translators and those who require
translation work but do not have a formal legal background to
follow the arguments presented.
This book introduces the latest advances in Corpus-Based Translation Studies, tracing the
advances from the advent of language corpora in translation studies, to the new textual
dimensions and shift towards a probability-variation model.

Towards a General Theory of Translational Action
Skopos Theory Explained
Katharina Reiss, Hans J Vermeer and Christiane Nord
Multilingual Contexts, Translational Texts
Edited by Simona Bertacco, University of Milan, Italy
Series: Routledge Research in Postcolonial Literatures
This book explores postcolonial literatures from a translational
perspective and argues that postcolonial studies should become
a discourse of and on translation in order to be responsive to
the complexity of the textuality, and even the literariness, of
postcolonial texts. It makes a timely and strategic intervention
into debates in literary studies (especially postcolonial studies,
comparative literature, and world literature) as well as in
discussions of globalization and cosmopolitanism, carrying out
the convergence of the linguistic and literary approaches to
postcolonial literatures by joining them with translation studies.
