Language and Identity in Englishes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780415669870)

Language and Identity in Englishes examines the ways in which people interact with linguistic features of English in creating identities linked to geographic place and imaginative space. Drawing on a range of international examples from the UK, US, China and India, Clark uses both research undertaken in the field and her own ground-breaking investigations to give a comprehensive account of the study of language and identity.
