Towards an Ecology of World Languages

Louis-Jean Calvet

0/5 ( ratings)

In this essential new book Louis-Jean Calvet argues that what we call 'languages' are in fact abstractions invented by linguists as a convenient tool to label the subject-matter of their science. Calvet contends that languages are "alive" and therefore can and should only be approached ecologically.
