Unveiling Migration and Education in Marina Budhos's Fiction
This book delves into the profound challenges and triumphs of immigrant children navigating the educational landscape in America, which have been skilfully depicted in Marina Budhos's novels. In this thought-provoking work, the transformative power of intersectionality is artfully unravelled, offering penetrating insights into the lived experiences of these resilient young individuals. Central to this scholarly odyssey is the illumination of intersectionality as a conceptual framework, meticulously elucidating the intricate entanglement of multifarious oppressive dimensions faced by immigrant communities. By disentangling the interplay of race, gender, ethnicity, and socio-economic status, this work unveils the hitherto obscured realities underlying the migration experience. Engaging with the complexities of immigrant children's lives, it not only illuminates the academic discourse surrounding this issue, but also nurtures a profound sense of empathy, advocating a more enlightened and compassionate society that cherishes the diverse potential of all its young inhabitants.
Handbook of Second and Foreign Language Writing
The Handbook of Second and Foreign Language Writing is an authoritative reference compendium of the theory and research on second and foreign language writing that can be of value to researchers, professionals, and graduate students. It is intended both as a retrospective critical reflection that can situate research on L2 writing in its historical context and provide a state of the art view of past achievements, and as a prospective critical analysis of what lies ahead in terms of theory, research, and applications. Accordingly, the Handbook aims to provide (i) foundational information on the emergence and subsequent evolution of the field, (ii) state-of-the-art surveys of available theoretical and research (basic and applied) insights, (iii) overviews of research methods in L2 writing research, (iv) critical reflections on future developments, and (iv) explorations of existing and emerging disciplinary interfaces with other fields of inquiry.
