Yiddish in America

This book offers an intimate ethnographic window into the ways Chinese Muslims produce, maintain, and transmit religious, cultural, and historical knowledge through their everyday practices of heritage literacy. Sino-Muslims in China inhabit a unique landscape of religious and spiritual expression, shaped by the intersections of the Islamic faith with Chinese cultural traditions, and where the spoken and written word plays a vital role in sustaining Islamic heritage across generations. Drawing from multiple personal narratives across diverse regions - including Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Qinghai, Gansu, Jilin, Henan, and Hong Kong SAR - this book illuminates the lived experiences of Chinese Muslims as they navigate the intersections of faith, language, and identity. These accounts trace practices of heritage literacy shaped by migration, linguistic-semiotic ideologies, life-cycle rituals, and forms of artistic expression. The authors show how practices of heritage literacy, rooted in Islamic traditions yet responsive to contemporary shifts, tether Sino-Muslims to a broader sense of Muslimness while also anchoring them in local Chinese cultural and historical milieus and diverse linguistic traditions. This interdisciplinary study offers new insights into the significance of heritage literacy in linguistic anthropological study, and the vital role of narrative in preserving and articulating Islamic heritage in China's evolving sociocultural landscape.

Corpus and Discourse

Combining corpus linguistics, critical discourse analysis, and a discourse analysis of narratives, this book considers one aspect of the Brexit process: the language that journalists, politicians and individuals used to write and talk about what it means to be British and European around the time of Brexit. It reveals a trajectory towards a discourse of national division in Brexit Britain in three datasets: pro-Brexit newspaper articles, UK Government documents, and interviews with individual citizens. Demonstrating the important role that (supra-)national identity discourses played in discussions about Brexit, the book traces a shift towards a representation of Brexit Britain as divided and in decline at a time when the construction of a collective identity is likely to be paramount. The emerging representation is a direct contradiction of the great global trading nation narrative that the Vote Leave campaigners - and later the UK Government - promised, questioning the discursive success of the Global Britain project. Constructing Brexit Britain demonstrates that the transition from pre- to post-Brexit Britain was a crucial period of destabilisation for institutional and lay national identity narratives. It also illustrates that the coming years are likely to be just as important, as the UK forges its post-Brexit place in the world amid declining levels of trust in politicians, calls for a second Scottish membership referendum, the COVID-19 pandemic, and a cost of living crisis.

Andere Ästhetik – Koordinaten

Der Band zielt darauf, vormoderne Phänomene von Norm und Abweichung als dynamische Situationen eines Aushandelns des Ästhetischen und als ein ästhetisches Aushandeln zu betrachten. Zwar zielt jede Formulierung einer Norm auf Allgemeingültigkeit, zugleich existiert aber eine Pluralität von Normen und wird ihr Geltungsanspruch durch eine vielfältige Praxis reflektiert und immer wieder neu zur Diskussion gestellt. Die Beiträge dokumentieren die Diskussionen um den Querschnittsbereich "Norm und Diversität" des Tübinger Sonderforschungsbereichs 1391 "Andere Ästhetik".

Second Language Acquisition Research Series

Ethnography as a research method is gaining attention among students and scholars in applied linguistics, but there is little guidance in the existing literature on how to do ethnographic research. Ethnographic Research in Applied Linguistics is the only single-authored, standalone volume that deals with the very interesting and often complex issues of doing research examining cultural practices in cross-cultural contexts.

Routledge Studies in World Englishes

Under the umbrella of Englishes evolving, this edited volume marries studies into the history of the English language with research traditionally rooted in the World Englishes paradigm.Insights into patterns of regional variation are offered with regard to linguistic features that have hitherto primarily been investigated in a small set of first-language varieties, but descriptions of varieties in the Kachruvian Outer Circle are also enhanced through noteworthy historical perspectives. Methodologically, each contribution works on strictly empirical grounds, regularly producing insights based on only recently compiled corpora of first- and/or second-language varieties of English. This approach brings to the fore novel functional and structural features of understudied varieties such as the Englishes in Namibia and Sint Maarten, but also of varieties with more established research traditions in Asia as well as of functional varieties English. In order to unveil said varietal features, novel analytical approaches including the study of cultural scripts or refinements of tree-based modelling techniques are embraced.In the light of said conceptual and methodological contributions, the edited volume is an attractive read for advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and academics in the fields of World Englishes, historical linguistics, corpus linguistics and sociolinguistics. It will also be of interest to researchers in related disciplines, including cultural studies.
