A unique new insight into multilingual families, this book views multilingual childhoods from the point of the child and is based on over 50 interviews with adults who grew up in multilingual settings. The book charts their recollections of their childhoods and includes many different types of families, discusses many of the common issues that arise in multilingual families, and draws examples from all over the world. The book fills a significant gap in the literature and resources available to multilingual parents. It was researched and written by a self-help group of multilingual parents and thus the book remains very practical and gives clear and realistic advice to multilingual parents facing choices or dilemmas. However, because of its unique viewpoint, this book also includes much new material that will be of interest to researchers and students of bilingualism.

In the study of word formation, the focus has often been on generating the form. In this book, the semantic aspect of the formation of new words is central. It is viewed from the perspectives of word formation rules and of lexicalization. Each chapter concentrates on a specific question about a theoretical concept or a word formation process in a particular language and adopts a theoretical framework that is appropriate to the study of this question. From general theoretical concepts of productivity and lexicalization, the focus moves to terminology, compounding, and derivation. The theoreti

Les objets techniques, leur manipulation, sont presque toujours renvoyés au masculin. Or, ce stéréotype n’est que partiellement vrai une fois que l’on s’est efforcé de mener une analyse fine des rapports entre genre et techniques, ambition de tous les auteurs de ce livre. Dans l’historiographie francophone, comme le lien entre genre et techniques a été rarement effectué, les principales questions à la croisée de ces deux thématiques doivent encore être étudiées et les réponses déjà apportées approfondies. Ainsi, l’étude du rapport entre les femmes et les techniques n’est qu’une première approche qui doit être étendue dans le cadre d’une problématique plus large tenant compte de tous les aspects du genre, notamment les questions liées à la masculinité. Ces aspects méritent d’ailleurs une attention toute particulière, dans le sens où l’enseignement technique contribue à la construction d’un certain type de masculinité, reproduisant, par exemple, des différences genrées à l’école et dans les milieux professionnels. Les différents textes rassemblés dans cet ouvrage permettent de s’interroger sur une thématique innovante. Si les travaux d’historiens dominent, le sujet abordé rend néanmoins nécessaire une approche pluridisciplinaire. La sociologie, la philosophie et l’anthropologie apportent donc également ici un éclairage sur les liens qui peuvent exister entre genre et techniques.
