History and Language in St Lucia 1654-1915 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780244511661)

Sons and daughters of St Lucia are likely to love Morgan Dalphinis' clear and readable account of the island's linguistic history. His soaring overview highlights significant points of interconnection in the web of language, culture and identity as the peoples of the island confronted successive waves of change and shaped their destinies. Consequently, St Lucian History & Language not only acknowledges influences pre 1654, but in light of identified developments between that date and 1915 Dalphinis asks us some provocative questions about the direction of travel for both the language and people beyond the early decades of the twenty-first century.
