Textul de pe ultima copertă
"Providing a positive counterbalance to the current anti-immigration rhetoric which is so prevalent, Guido’s research offers pertinent insight into English as a Lingua Franca being used in high stakes communicative acts where power imbalances are acute, and will make substantial contribution to the field."
— Haynes Collins, Associate Professor of Intercultural Studies, University of Leeds, UK

Caracteristici
Examines how linguaculture can affect the reception of migrants’ trauma narratives Argues that PTSD categories established by the American Psychiatric Association (APA) and used within Transcultural Psychiatry fail to accommodate non-Western experiences of trauma Provides linguistic insight into interpretive gaps between migrants and refugees using ELF variations and experts using specialized and culture-bound discourses Presents solutions to enable Western experts to better understand culture-bound ways of expressing trauma
