Schon lange wurde nicht mehr so engagiert über die Lage der deutschen Sprache gestritten. Viele der Sorgen sind keineswegs neu, aber sie werden seit einigen Jahren mit neuer Dringlichkeit öffentlich vorgetragen: Die deutsche Sprache verfalle zusehends, ihr reicher Wortschatz und ihre Grammatik verarmten, und im internationalen Wettbewerb sei das Deutsche längst ins Hintertreffen geraten, während Anglizismen sich in unserer Sprache ausbreiteten - so lauten einige der Alarmmeldungen. Doch wie ist es tatsächlich um Reichtum und Armut der deutschen Sprache bestellt? Welche Sorgen sind begründet, welche nicht? Die Deutsche Akademie für Sprache und Dichtung und die Union der deutschen Akademien der Wissenschaften wollen sich mit fundierten Informationen zur Entwicklung der deutschen Sprache im 20. Jahrhundert an der öffentlichen Diskussion beteiligen. Mit dem Ersten Bericht zur Lage der deutschen Sprache werden nun die Ergebnisse wissenschaftlicher Untersuchungen zu vier Themengebieten vorgelegt, die in unterschiedlicher Weise die Debatten bestimmt haben: Wortschatz, Anglizismen, Flexion und Nominalstil.

"This book puts writing at the centre of sociolinguistic inquiry drawing on a range of academic fields including New Literacy Studies, semiotics, genre studies, stylistics and new rhetoric. The key question the book explores is--what do we mean by 'writing' in the twenty-first century? Using examples from across a range of contexts the book argues that writing, involving both old and new technologies, is a pervasive and complex communicative feature of contemporary life. The book is organised around the following areas: the multimodal nature of writing, the verbal dimension to writing, writing as everyday practice, writing as a differentiated semiotic and social resource, writing as the inscription of identity. A range of analytic tools for analysing writing as text and practice are illustrated including genre, register, discourse and metaphor, as well as notions which emphasise the mobile potential of writing such as genre chains, networks, literacy brokers and text trajectories. This book seeks to redress the neglect of writing in the field of sociolinguistics by introducing readers to the nature and consequences of what it means to do writing in a globalised world."--Publisher's description.
