近年注目を集める社会言語学の重要テーマ「言語景観」の初のハンドブック。街の看板から、身体のタトゥーまで、都市から農村、国境、観光、抗議活動、デジタルまで、遍在する「言語景観」へのアプローチの盛況を示す全29章。Through a wide selection of case studies and original research, this handbook highlights the global reach of linguistic landscape theories and practices. Scrutinising an array of qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methodological approaches for analysing a wide spectrum of meaning-making phenomena, it investigates semiosis in contexts ranging from graffiti and street signs to tattoos and literature, visible across a variety of sites, including city centres, rural settings, schools, protest marches, museums, war-torn landscapes, and the internet.
