Transnational Literacy Autobiographies as Translingual Writing
Autor Suresh Canagarajahen Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 iul 2019
In this state-of-the-art collection, Suresh Canagarajah brings together 11 samples of writing by students that both document their literary journeys and pinpoint the seminal works affecting their development as translingual readers and writers. Integrating the narrative of the author, which is written as his own literacy autobiography, with a close analysis of these texts, this book:
- presents a case for the literacy autobiography as an archetypal genre that prepares writers for the conventions and processes required in other genres of writing;
- demonstrates the serious epistemological and rhetorical implications behind the genre of literacy autobiography among migrant scholars and students;
- effectively translates theoretical publications on language diversity for classroom purposes, providing a transferable teaching approach to translingual writing;
- analyzes the tropes of transnational writers and their craft in "meshing" translingual resources in their writing;
- demonstrates how transnationalism and translingualism are interconnected, guiding readers toward an understanding of codemeshing not as a cosmetic addition to texts but motivated toward resolving inescapable personal and social dilemmas.

Recenzii
"This is an amazing collection of literacy autobiographies by a group of multilingual language users and a critical engagement with them by Canagarajah, coming directly out of practice but with wide-ranging theoretical and methodological implications. There is nothing like it out there, and this volume will really push the boundaries and be a key milestone for literacy studies, translingual writing and language in education."
Li Wei, University College London, UK
"At once a treatise on language and writing pedagogy, a collection of translingual and transnational literacy autoethnographies, and a textbook, this is a remarkable publishing feat that, in and through its multifaceted character, demonstrates both the challenges and value of transnational and translingual writing and its teaching."
Bruce Horner, University of Louisville, USA
