Описание:

Englishes in Africa is an important new edited collection which explores various aspects of English in contemporary Africa. The authors examine the current state of English in eight countries where the language plays a major role: Cameroun, Ghana, Nigeria, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Morocco, and Zimbabwe. Collectively they demonstrate the growing strength of English in Africa as part of globalization, notwithstanding the time that has elapsed since these countries gained their independence. The book also illuminates the clear tendency among people in anglophone Africa to claim ownership of the forms of English spoken in those countries today.

This book is different in that it opens a range of other topics of research that erupt when one thinks ‘from Africa’ and considers Englishes as African languages in all their functions. In this sense it is original and could be considered as seminal in a growing field.
—Maarten Mous, Professor of African Linguistics, Leiden University

The present volume, which brings together African scholars to present their research into African varieties of English, is a welcome and much needed addition to the World Englishes canon.
—Thomas Hoffmann, Professor of English Language and Linguistics, Catholic University of Eichstaett-Ingolstadt
