Language Dialect and Identity in Lille (Studies in Linguistics and Semiotics 19b)

"This two-volume book tackles a number of major themes, which, although largely neglected in studies of European French, can be exemplified with particular clarity in the context of the Lille conurbation. This work not only clearly breaks significant new ground within the field of French Studies, combining insights of dialectology with the rigor of modern sociolinguistics applied to a rich array of oral data, thus opening up the perspective of a thorough sociolinguistic overview of a major city."Timothy Pooley is the author of 'Language Dialect and Identity in Lille (Studies in Linguistics and Semiotics 19b)' with ISBN 9780773464278 and ISBN 0773464271.
