"This is a breathtakingly wide-ranging book that reveals the literally thousands of complexities in the study of language and culture. Clearly structured and written by the best experts in the field, it is a milestone in the serious study of the language-culture interface."
Zoltán Kövecses, Eötvös Loránd University, Hungary





"As the world becomes increasingly globalised, it's extremely important for people in many different fields to gain a deeper understanding of the interrelationship between language and culture. This Handbook provides a wonderfully broad-ranging and stimulating exploration of this complex field and is likely to become an important reference source for all those working in this area."
Helen Spencer-Oatey, University of Warwick, UK





"The publisher's copy recommends the Routlege Handbook of Language and Culture as 'a vital resource for scholars and students interested in language and culture'. That it certainly is. The coverage is broad and there is much of immediate practical use."
