Ebook: Chronotopic Identity Work: Sociolinguistic Analyses of Cultural and Linguistic Phenomena in Time and Space

Outlines how a person’s understanding and expression of their relation to time and space affects their identity

The concept of chronotopicity is increasingly used in sociolinguistic theorizing as a new way of looking at context and scale in studies of language, culture and identity. This volume brings together empirical work that puts flesh on the bones of this rather abstract theorizing, focusing on the discursive construction of chronotopic identities.
