MoreLong description:
This volume provides the first comprehensive reference work in English on the French language in all its facets. It offers a wide-ranging approach to the rich, varied, and exciting research across multiple subfields, with seven broad thematic sections covering the structures of French; the history of French; axes of variation; French around the world; French in contact with other languages; second language acquisition; and French in literature, culture, arts, and the media. Each chapter presents the state of the art and directs readers to canonical studies and essential works, while also exploring cutting-edge research and outlining future directions. The Oxford Handbook of the French Language serves both as a reference work for people who are curious to know more about the French language and as a starting point for those carrying out new research on the language and its many varieties. It will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students as well as established scholars, whether they are specialists in French linguistics or researchers in a related field looking to learn more about the language. The diversity of frameworks, approaches, and scholars in the volume demonstrates above all the variety, vitality, and vibrancy of work on the French language today.
True to its title, this volume represents an ambitious undertaking whose chapters encompass a wide range of topics related to the linguistic analysis of French varieties. Although no single work can offer an exhaustive view of an entire field (plus subfields) of inquiry, the contents of this volume—wider in scope and less narrowly defined than a number of recent handbooks dedicated to French-admirably survey much of the French linguistics terrain [...] highlights include the treatment of French as a collection of varieties rather than a monolithic standard, the frequent emphasis on multilingualism and language contact, discussions of recent and ongoing linguistic innovations (e.g., inclusive language, newly created prepositions), and the inclusion of emerging or relatively recent areas of inquiry (e.g., digital discourse) alongside classic topics.
