Recenzii

'In about 250 pages, Diarmait Mac Giolla Chríost contributes enough material to keep not so much scholars as workers in the area of linguistic promotion inspired for years.' – The Linguist List
'Indispensible reading for anyone concerned about language identity and language shift.' – Forum for Modern Language Studies

'In about 250 pages, Diarmait Mac Giolla Chríost contributes enough material to keep not so much scholars as workers in the area of linguistic promotion inspired for years ... this study condenses immense efforts to direct discourse about the state and fate of Irish into a previously neglected intersection between academic and community-based efforts. The author applies research too often languishing upon government and academic shelves into a theory-laden but careful examination for a public forum.' - John L. Murphy, The Linguist List
'Overall, The Irish Language in Ireland should be a standard reference work for some time to come. It succeeds in making the history and contemporary reality of Irish (and the theory and statistics relating to the language) accessible to all. There will be very many students, academics, amateurs and professionals who will be grateful for this book. It contributes a great deal to the study of Irish in Ireland in both the past and the present and, as such, it is highly recommended to anyone interested in the language, no matter their level of engagement.' - Criostoir Rowland, Irish Journal of Anthropology
'Indispensible reading for anyone concerned about language identity and language shift.' – Forum for Modern Language Studies
 
'This introductory overview of the debate on the complex interface between language and society will be of interest and use to the novice student of sociolinguistics and provides an up-to-date well referenced review of literature for the more seasoned researcher.'--Sociolinguistic Studies
