by Greg Niedt (Editor)
This collection brings together contributions from a new wave of research into language, space, and place, at the intersection of various disciplines, from geography to sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology. The authors investigate the myriad ways that people conceive of--and thereby describe--the world around them, studying the impact these ideas have on their identities, and highlighting the tension between conflicting ontologies of space.
It is a timely and invaluable new resource for researchers and students in linguistics, geography, anthropology and communication.
