New book: Languages of Gibraltar - 20 Linguistic Biographies

We are pleased to announce the publication of Languages of Gibraltar - 20 Linguistic Biographies by Mellen Press at the end of this year. This volume, edited by team members M.G. Sanchez, Elena Seoane, Cristina Suárez and Lucía Loureiro, contains the linguistic biographies of a diverse range of Gibraltarian men and women. Politicians, writers, journalists, PhD students and teachers will describe their linguistic experiences, focusing on elements such as education, emotions, biases and usages. 

With this compendium we intend to raise awareness of the multilingual character of Gibraltarian society, and at the same contribute to the Yanito ‘renaissance’ currently been experienced in Gibraltar.
