Sinopsis

Based on research in Scotland and Nova Scotia, the papers in this collection focus on a number of interconnected themes, including language ideologies and affective stances about what it means to be a Gaelic speaker, media discourses of Gaelic language death and revitalization, the intersection of neoliberalism and minority language revitalization, the theoretical frameworks of Reversing Language Shift (RLS) and communities of practice as they apply to Gaelic language revitalization efforts, and issues of power and knowledge in research and representation of Gaelic communities. Essays include the author&rsquo,s previously published articles and book chapters spanning the period 2005&ndash,2013, as well as three previously unpublished papers. Suitable for undergraduate and graduate-level courses in linguistic anthropology, sociolinguistics, Celtic studies, and education.&ldquo,I&rsquo,m glad that a new volume strong on Gaelic survival, persistence, and revitalization is now on offer, with due emphasis on social setting and social factors. Congratulations [to the author] on bringing such a strong body of work out in a form where it can be appreciated as a whole.&rdquo, á&mdash,Dr. Nancy C.
