Description
Résumé:Most people across the globe are bilingual, trilingual, or simply polyglots. This book engages in an interdisciplinary and intercultural approach to 21st-century multilingualism, not only as a linguistic phenomenon but also as a perpetual, ever-changing human condition in an interconnected and digital age. It maps out how languages interact with one another in power dynamics, identity formations, cultural preservations, teaching pedagogies, and empirical applications. Across the globe, the chapter authors examine multilingualism from African, East/South Asian, European, Latin American, Middle Eastern, and North American contexts. The book invites readers to engage in multilingualism in a macro universe, as well as in a particular micro realm.
