Endangered Languages
ISBN: 9780521591027 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The issue of language loss is currently the focus of much linguistic research. This edited volume brings together work by theoretical linguists, field linguists and nonlinguist members of minority communities to provide an integrated view of how language is lost, from sociological and economic as well as from linguistic perspectives. It maps out some of the strategies applied by native communities and professional linguists in the face of language endangerment. Several authors address the understudied issue of what (beyond a linguistic system) is lost when a language becomes obsolescent.

Language Policy in the Soviet Union
ISBN: 9781402012983 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Soviet language policy provides rich material for the study of the impact of policy on language use. Moreover, it offers a unique vantage point on the tie between language and culture. While linguists and ethnographers grapple with defining the relationship of language to culture, or of language and culture to identity, the Soviets knew that language is an integral and inalienable part of culture. The former Soviet Union provides an ideal case study for examining these relationships, in that it had one of the most deliberate language policies of any nation state. This is not to say that it...
