{"product_id":"creating-canadian-english-stefan-dollinger-9781108708753","title":"Creating Canadian English: The Professor, the Mountaineer, and a National Variety of English","description":"This lively account of the making of Canadian English traces the variety's conceptual, social and linguistic developments from the twentieth century to the present. This book is not just another history of Canadian English; it is a history of the variety's discovery, codification, and eventual acceptance, as well as the contribution of the linguists behind it. Written by an active research linguist focusing on Canadian English, this book is an archive-based biography on multiple levels. Through a combination of new data and re-interpretations of existing studies, a new voice is given to earlier generations of Canadian linguists who, generally forgotten today, shaped the variety and how we think about it. Exploring topics such as linguistic description and codification, dictionary making, linguistic imperialism, linguistic attitudes, language and Canadian identity, or the threat of Americanisation, Dollinger presents a coherent, integrated and balanced account of developments spanning over almost a century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stefan Dollinger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108708757\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108708753\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/11\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Stefan Dollinger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44067089875199,"sku":"9781108708753","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fafd79a1-b00f-438f-8d7e-e0ab95751424.jpg?v=1685411131","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/creating-canadian-english-stefan-dollinger-9781108708753","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
