Item description from seller

336 pp., 1 coloured ill., 1 b/w ill., 20 tables, 2 graph. A perfect copy. - Summary: Medium-sized language communities face competition between local and global languages such as Spanish, Russian, French and, above all, English. The various regions of Spain where Catalan is spoken, Denmark, the Czech Republic, and Lithuania show how their medium-sized languages (a term used to distinguish them as much from minority codes as from more widely-spoken codes) coexist alongside or struggle with their big brothers in multilingual families. This comparative analysis offers unique insight into language contact in present-day Europe. - Contents: Introduction (Albert Bastardas-Boada / Emili Boix-Fuster / Rosa Maria Torrens-Guerrini) -- Mixed-Language Families in Catalonia: Competences, Uses and Evolving Self-Organisation (Albert Bastardas-Boada) -- Narrative Discourse in Interviews of Linguistically Mixed Couples (Xavier Laborda Gil) -- Discourses on Language and Language Choice Among Danish/English-Speaking Families in Denmark (Anne Larsen / Marie Maegaard) -- Monolingual Language Ideology, Multilingual Families and the Dynamics of Linguistic Diversity in the Czech Republic. Insights from Analysis of Discursive Practices in Research Interviews (Helena Özörencik / Magdalena Hromadová) -- Contact Between the Titular Language and the Post-Colonial Language in Bilingual Lithuanian-Russian Families Within the Context of the Growing Role of English (Svetlana Markova) -- Family Language Policy in the UK: Identity Building and Language Maintenance at Home (Bibi Stacey / Josep Soler) -- New Speakers' Ideologies and Trajectories in Bilingual Families in Catalonia (Emili Boix-Fuster / Anna Paradís) -- Language Uses and Linguistic Ideologies in Mixed French-Catalan Families in Catalonia (Francesc Bernat I Baltrons) -- Mixed Couples in Catalonia: Intergenerational Language Transmission and Language Use (Rosa Maria Torrens-Guerrini).
