Abstract

Bringing together sociolinguistic, linguistic, and educational perspectives, this cuttingedge overview of codeswitching examines language mixing in teaching and learning in bilingual classrooms. As interest in pedagogical applications of bilingual language mixing increases, so too does a need for a thorough discussion of the topic. This volume serves that need by providing an original and wide-ranging discussion of theoretical, pedagogical, and policyrelated issues and obstacles in classroom settings--the pedagogical consequences of codeswitching for teaching and learning of language and content in oneway and twoway bilingual classrooms. Part I provides an introduction to (socio)linguistic and pedagogical contributions to scholarship in the field, both historical and contemporary. Part II focuses on codeswitching in teaching and learning, and addresses a range of pedagogical challenges to language mixing in a variety of contexts, such as literacy and mathematics instruction. Part III looks at language ideology and language policy to explore how students navigate educational spaces and negotiate their identities in the face of competing language ideologies and assumptions. This volume breaks new ground and serves as an important contribution on codeswitching for scholars, researchers, and teacher educators of language education, multilingualism, and applied linguistics.

Abstract

The study of code-switching has been carried out from linguistic, psycholinguistic, and sociolinguistic perspectives, largely in isolation from each other. This volume attempts to unite these three research strands by placing at the centre of the enquiry the role played by social factors in the occurrence, forms, and outcomes of code-switching. The contributions in this volume are divided into three parts: "code-switching between cognition and socio-pragmatics", "multilingual interaction and identity", and "code-switching and social structure". The case studies represent contact settings on five continents and feature languages with diverse linguistic affiliations. They are predictive and descriptive in their research goals and rely on experimental or naturalistic data. But they share the common goal of seeking to explain how social structures, ideologies, and identity impact on the grammatical and conversational features of code-switching and language mixing, and on the emergence of mixed languages. Given its scope, this volume is a significant addition to the empirical and theoretical foundations of the study of code-switching. It is also of relevance to the general debate on the inter-relationships between language and society.

Abstract

Die deutsche Schweiz gilt als typischer Fall einer Diglossiesituation, in der die Dialekte die ausschliessliche Alltagsvarietät aller Bevölkerungskreise darstellen. Die historischen Bedingungen, die zu dieser sprachgeschichtlichen Entwicklung geführt haben, sind bislang jedoch wenig untersucht. Die Studie analysiert die öffentlichen Debatten zum Schweizerdeutschen und zum Verhältnis zwischen Dialekt und Standardsprache in der Deutschschweiz des 19. Jahrhunderts. Auf dieser Grundlage rekonstruiert sie zeitgenössische Spracheinstellungen und dominante Formen kollektiven Sprachbewusstseins. Sie zeigt, wie sich vor dem Hintergrund gesellschaftsgeschichtlicher Entwicklungen ein nationales Sprachbewusstsein ausbildet, aus dem heraus sich die Diglossie als spezifisches Element einer (Deutsch)Schweizer Sprachkultur konsolidiert, die bis in die Gegenwart anhält. Die Erkenntnisse über die sprachbewusstseinsgeschichtlichen Prozesse des 19. Jahrhunderts, zu denen die Untersuchung eines umfassenden Quellenkorpus gelangt, führen zu nachhaltigen Einsichten in die Geschichte der Deutschschweizer Diglossie und leisten einen massgeblichen Beitrag zum Verständnis der Deutschschweizer Sprachsituation. Little is known about the conditions that led to German-Swiss diglossia. Based on public discourse about Swiss German, the study shows that with respect to the history of language awareness, today's typical bilingualism in Swiss German and standard German became consolidated in the 19th century in close relation to societal processes. The study is a major contribution to the linguistic history of German-speaking Switzerland.
