Produktbeschreibung
The Routledge Handbook of Plurilingual Language Education is the first comprehensive publication on plurilingualism, offering a multidimensional reflection on the nature, scope, and potential of plurilingualism in language education and society.

Authored by a range of internationally recognized experts, the Handbook provides an overview of key perspectives on plurilingualism in a complementary range of fields. After a comprehensive introduction to the concept itself, 24 chapters are organized in six parts, each examining plurilingualism through a different lens. The Handbook spans historical, philosophical, and sociological dimensions, examines cognitive and neuroscientific implications, and the limitations of boundaries before moving to a pragmatic perspective: How is plurilingual language education developing in different contexts around the world? How can it contribute to language revitalization? How can it be expected to develop in education, digital spaces, and society as a whole?

Written for an international audience, this handbook is an indispensable reference tool for scholars in education and applied linguistics, educators, graduate and post-graduate students, and policy makers.

Rezensionen
"This is an important and timely contribution, exploring comprehensively the significance, reach, and influence of plurilingualism, conceptually, geographically, and pedagogically. It highlights how a theoretical concept with its genesis in Europe can further inform and expand those sociolinguistic and applied linguistic fields worldwide which focus on language plurality as their starting point. Read it."

Stephen May, University of Auckland, New Zealand.



"This comprehensive volume is an outstanding contribution to the study of plurilingualism and plurilingual education. It is an excellent resource for scholars and for all those interested in how to value plurilingual repertoires and how to consider linguistic and cultural diversity as an asset."

Jasone Cenoz, University of the Basque Country, Spain.



"This collection of insights into plurilingual education presents a significant contribution for all interested in plurilingual education, multilingualism, language teaching and language learning in general. It summarizes the state-of-the-art of contemporary knowledge in an extraordinary variety of topics and thereby gives evidence of the multifaceted nature of the fairly new domain. This indispensable resource will certainly open up new research avenues in the field of language pedagogy in its relation to the dynamics and complexity of pluri- and multilingualism."

Ulrike Jessner, University of Innsbruck, Austria and University of Pannonia, Hungary.



"Plurilingualism is a phenomenon whose significance has become more evident, and analysed, in the contemporary world, and one of which educators must take into account. With contributions from authoritative scholars, this handbook provides the foundation on which new educational practices and outcomes can be constructed. It is a volume for every language professional and educators' library."

Michael Byram, University of Durham, UK.

"This much needed handbook consolidates theories, philosophies and practices around plurilingualism in education from different disciplinary, cultural and geographical angles. An essential companion for researchers, educators and teacher educators!"
