Linguistic Landscapes and Multilingualism in Yaoundé, Cameroon

Sociolinguistic and socio-cognitive processes at work

Herausgegeben: Polzenhagen, Frank

Beschreibung

Linguistic Landscape studies examine language(s) in public spaces. This study focuses on the interplay of language, space and sociocultural context: Yaoundé's Linguistic Landscape is examined with respect to its multilingual and multimodal nature. Next to a sociolinguistic framework, a (socio)cognitive analysis is also put centre stage.
