SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2020 BAAL BOOK PRIZE
This book brings together empirical studies from around the world to
help readers gain a better understanding of multilinguals, ranging
from small children to elderly people, and their lives. The chapters
focus on the multilingual subjects’ identities and the ways in which
they are discursively and/or visually constructed, and are split into
sections looking specifically at the multilingual self, the
multilingual learner and multilingual teacher education. The studies
draw on rich visual data, which is analysed for content and/or form
and often complemented with other types of data, to investigate how
multilinguals make sense of their use and knowledge of more than one
language in their specific context. The topic of multilingualism is
addressed as subjectively experienced and the book unites the current
multilingual, narrative and visual turns in Applied Language Studies.
It will be of interest to students and researchers working in the
areas of language learning and teaching, teacher education and
bi/multilingualism, as well as to those interested in using visual
methods and narratives as a means of academic research.
