Recenzii

This new and completely updated edition of Patrick Stevenson's The German-Speaking World will be welcomed by all colleagues who teach courses on German sociolinguistics. The three new authors are experts in different fields and between them they cover a wide range of topics, all of them throwing light on the complex and fascinating relationship between language and society in the German-speaking world in the twenty-first century. The book will be a rich resource for lecturers and students, with its accessible style and layout and its well designed and imaginative tasks, which encourage reflection on and critical engagement with the topics.
Wini Davies, Aberystwyth University
This new edition presents a comprehensive view of German sociolinguistics, written in an accessible manner but containing a strong theoretical foundation. The material in this volume provides an excellent introduction for any student who wishes to understand how language contributes to the socio-political development of Europe, addressing issues of immigration, national identities, multilingualism and the role of media, and looking at both institutional practices and everyday conversation.
Janet Fuller, University of Groningen
A truly excellent resource for German sociolingui
stics. It offers a detailed, critical and scholarly account of contemporary German, with clear explanations, a rich variety of up-to-date examples, and a wealth of suggestions for in-class activities, reflective tasks and independent research projects. An ideal textbook for undergraduates, postgraduates, established scholars, and anyone with an interest in the German language today.
Geraldine Horan, University College London
This thoroughly updated and expanded second edition of the classic textbook makes it possible for those of us who teach in the area of German sociolinguistics to continue using the best book on the market without sacrificing attention to more recent world events and cutting-edge research in the field.
Jennifer Dailey-O'Cain, University of Alberta
