Janet Giltrow
LAW, LANGUAGE AND INDIGENEITY IN CANADA AND BEYOND
Pragmatic Approaches
New book series
The book applies pragmatic analysis to Supreme Court of Canada decisions on indigenous rights, and to historical record of interactions around first legal contact between European and indigenous peoples. Recognising challenges to study of topics in indigeneity, it takes pragmatic methods to discussion of research ethics. Levinson’s concept of genre is re-activated and adds the social-action version of genre found in new-rhetorical genre theory.

DEVELOPMENT OF MODALITY IN FIRST LANGUAGE ACQUISITION
A Cross-Linguistic Perspective
Early developmental stages of deontic and epistemic modality are studied in sixteen typologically different languages from IE and non-IE language families following a functional-constructivist approach. Main issues addressed are the development of requests and evidential modality. One of the main findings is that the onset of epistemic modality is influenced by the typological characteristics of the language acquired.

The Impact of Language-Specific Patterns and Language Dominance in Bilingual Children
NOW IN PAPERBACK
This volume is an empirical study based on the theoretical framework of multicompetence and on the typology of satellite-framed and verb-framed languages. It provides insights into sources of uni- and bidirectional influence in Turkish-German and Turkish-French bilinguals by evaluating the impact of language-specific patterns and language dominance on the expression of motion events in L1 and L2.

MULTIPLE PERSPECTIVES ON LEARNER INTERACTION
The Corpus of Collaborative Oral Tasks
This volume uses a common dataset (the Corpus of Collaborative Oral Tasks) and includes three different perspectives on learner-learner interaction: learner corpora methodologies, Task-based Language Teaching, and assessment. The corpus (over 260,000 words) provides a representative sample of oral learner interaction during various collaborative tasks and includes studies from various theoretical or methodological traditions.

NATIVE LANGUAGE INFLUENCE AND AGE OF EXPOSURE IN THE ACQUISITION OF GENDER IN SPANISH
This study investigates the mechanisms and causes of successful and unsuccessful acquisition of gender in Spanish by early and late bilinguals of different language combinations (German-Spanish vs. English-Spanish). The results show differences in the mastery of gender in Spanish among the bilingual groups which are mainly driven by the language combination and an interplay between various other extra- and intra-linguistic factors.

NOW IN PAPERBACK
This volume addresses TBLT from various perspectives and aims to reflect the epistemological diversity in this area by drawing on multiple perspectives (i.e. cognitive-interactionist, complexity theory, sociocultural theory, and pedagogical/curricular). The volume brings together different ideas and theoretical frameworks and showcases distinct but complementary approaches to TBLT that could help the area prosper and mature in the future.

The aim of this volume is to illustrate the benefits of collaborative dialogue. The volume considers several crucial issues dealing with collaborative tasks such as the notions of mutuality, ownership, outcome and implementation (both online and face-to-face). All chapters feature data from several experimental studies illustrating learner collaboration in second/foreign language settings.

THE CHANGING FACE OF THE “NATIVE SPEAKER”
Perspectives from Multilingualism and Globalization
The notion of the native speaker has been challenged over the past several decades by new theoretical and methodological frameworks in multilingualism research. Nonetheless, underlying monolingual norms persist in social, educational and institutional settings and need a renewed and sustained research base. This collection enriches the discussion with voices from established and emerging researchers in various contexts and corners of the world.

THE INTENTIONAL DYNAMICS OF TESOL
Intentional dynamics is a new perspective on the meaning-making that shapes TESOL activity, contexts and outcomes. Intentional dynamics represents a synthesis of complex systems and ecological theories, which are becoming increasingly prominent in education and the social sciences. This novel perspective challenges and extends existing scholarship, with a range of theoretical and practical implications for TESOL research, practice and policy.

TENSE AND ASPECT IN ITALIAN INTERLANGUAGE
The study investigates the development of tense and aspect marking in the interlanguage, by analysing narrative texts written by learners of L3 Italian. It is especially focused on how the acquisition process is shaped by factors such as lexical aspect and discourse grounding. The data suggest that the frequency of semantically congruent combinations of lexical aspect, discourse grounding and verbal morphology increases alongside proficiency.

INDIVIDUALITY IN LANGUAGE CHANGE
Linguists have typically studied language change at the aggregate level of speech communities, yet key mechanisms of change such as analogy and automation operate within the minds of individual language users. Drawing on lifespan data from 50 authors and the intriguing case of the special passives in the history of English, this study breaks new ground in fundamental issues concerning individuality in language change.

THE LEARNABILITY OF COMPLEX CONSTRUCTIONS
A Cross-Linguistic Perspective
Mastering one or more languages, language users have to deal with complex morphological and syntactic constructions, which include, among others, inflected forms, compounds and phrases. The present volume focuses on phenomena that reflect how these items are acquired or learned by investigating a great range of different languages, relying on a variety of methodologies and considering data from mono-, bilingual and second-language speakers.

DIALECTS OF ENGLISH
Edited by Joan C. Beal, Karen P. Corrigan and Bernd Kortmann
The Dialects of English series provides concise, accessible, authoritative and up-to-date documentation for varieties of English, including English-based pidgins and creoles, from all over the English-speaking world. Written by experts who have conducted rst-hand research, the volumes are the most obvious starting point for readers who would like to know more about a particular regional, urban or ethnic variety. The volumes follow a common structure, covering the context in which one clearly de ned variety of English (or a number of closely related varieties) has been established as well as their phonetics and phonology, morphosyntax, lexis and social history. Each volume concludes with an annotated bibliography and some sample texts.

IDENTITY AND PRAGMATIC LANGUAGE USE
A Study on Japanese ELF Users
This book addresses the issues of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) speaker’s identity construction and its link to pragmatic language use through ELF communication. Based on qualitative interpretive research, the author shows how ELF speakers construct identities grounded in their lived and localized experiences in ELF communication, and how expression of identity is reflected through their choices of pragmatic language use in ELF.

An Analysis of Multimodal Resources
How do people overlap and take the floor from an interlocutor, disagree with each other, and complain about someone else in ELF interactions? This book investigates how ELF is used at challenging moments in casual ELF conversation among friends by using multimodal interactional analysis. The book illustrates the negotiation processes of interpersonal relationships at the challenging moments, and thus elaborates on situational variation in ELF.

Peter Mühlhäusler PITKERNNORF’K
The Language of Pitcairn Island and Norfolk Island
This book tells the story of the language of the Bounty mutineers and their Polynesian consorts that developed on remote Pitcairn Island in the late 18th century. Most of their descendants subsequently relocated to Norfolk Island. It is an in-depth study of the complex linguistic, ecological and sociohistorical forces that have been involved in the formation and subsequent development of this unique endangered language on both islands.

LINGUISTIC COMMUNITIES AND MIGRATORY PROCESSES
Newcomers Acquiring Sociolinguistic Variation in Northern Ireland
This book showcases an inter-disciplinary approach to language, migration and identity in Northern Ireland. New theoretical insights are drawn from ethnographic interviews that put models for acquiring sociolinguistic competence to the test. It also compares contemporary migratory experiences with historical records to further our understanding of the dynamics of identification through language relevant for the sociolinguistics of globalization.
