The Routledge Handbook of Eurolinguistics

"The Routledge Handbook of Eurolinguistics is a must-read for anyone who wants to engage with the languages and the linguistic landscape(s) of Europe from a decidedly Eurocentric perspective. It identifies a stunning range of Europeanisms and European commonalities. The volume will define the field for many years to come."
Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Bernd Kortmann, University of Freiburg, Germany

"The Routledge Handbook of Eurolinguistics spans a wide range of commonalities of the linguistic landscape of Europe: lexical, phonological and grammatical features, translation and multilingualism, planned languages and conscious influence on language, policies and institutions, historical and present. Typically for Europe, the authors draw on research published in many different languages."

Prof. Dr. Klaus Schubert, University of Hildesheim, Germany

"This is a truly important volume which discusses old and innovative concepts of "Europe" and "language planning" and "language politics". The basic and fundamental question for sociolinguists remains: what is Europe? A territory? A multilingual space? Which are the borders and what kind of impact do they have? There are many different detailed answers to be found in this handbook which enlarge our understanding and lead to new answers. To be recommended for everybody who is interested in the past and future of Europe in our globalized world."
