Revisiting Second Language Sociolinguistics
This book investigates socio-linguistic interactions in different second language (L2) contexts in an effort to identify the trends that lead to the acquisition of sociolinguistic variations by L2 learners, contributing significantly to L2 research and practice. It addresses sociolinguistic subjects such as multilingualism and its effects, as well as regional and social dialectology in L2. The different chapters explore the overall effect that society – including cultural norms, expectations, and contexts – has on L2 usage. They also consider how language varieties differ between groups separated by certain social variables such as ethnicity, religion, status, gender, level of education, and age, and how these variables categorise individuals into social or socioeconomic classes. The volume brings together careful theoretical and empirical research conducted in different countries, including Catalonia, Finland, Greece, Malta, Malaysia, the Republic of Cyprus, and the United Arab Emirates.

Fuster, una declinació personal
Aquest volum recull alguns dels treballs esparsos de Josep Iborra sobre el pensament i l'obra de Joan Fuster, i sobre el seu perfil personal i humà. Analitza l'assaig fusterià i alguns dels seus aforismes, i també la relació entre Fuster i Montaigne, Valéry o Pascal, entre d'altres. Inclou ressenyes i articles sobre la publicació de la correspondència de Fuster amb escriptors i intel·lectuals catalans de renom, i descriu el context en què va escriure la seua obra. Finalment, també assenyala la influència de Fuster en la literatura catalana, especialment al País Valencià. Josep Iborra, des de la seua experiència com a estudiós i amic de l'escriptor de Sueca, ens ofereix amb aquest conjunt de textos, alguns dels quals són inèdits, una excepcional anàlisi que amplia i completa els estudis precedents de l'obra fusteriana.

Culture as Soft Power
This book contributes to bridge the gap between different scholarly communities interested in the entanglements of culture and politics in the international arena. It sheds light on existing connections in their parallel evolution with a thorough literature review, complemented by several case studies showing the fruitful character of their interdisciplinary mobilisation. Through the notions of cultural relations, intellectual cooperation and cultural diplomacy, the book draws on a soft power perspective to offer a shared, novel, and interdisciplinary theoretical framework to approach cultural institutions and organisations that have been previously examined as isolated objects: for example, cultural institutes, international organisations, literary magazines, and literary contests. The interdisciplinary nature of this volume justifies the relevance of its content for scholars working in the history of international relations, international cultural relations and intellectual history, comparative literature, sociology of literature and global literary studies.
