The Routledge Handbook of World Englishes constitutes a
comprehensive introduction to the study of World Englishes. Split
into six sections with 40 contributions, this Handbook discusses
how English is operating in a wide range of fields from business to
popular culture and from education to new literatures in English
and its increasing role as an international lingua franca. Bringing
together more than 40 of the world's leading scholars in World
Englishes, the sections cover historical perspectives, regional
varieties of English from across the world, recent and emerging
trends and the pedagogical implications and the future of
Englishes. The Handbook provides a thorough and updated overview of
the field, taking into account the new directions in which the
discipline is heading. This second edition includes up-to-date
descriptions of a wide range of varieties of English and how these
reflect the cultures of their new users, including new chapters on
varieties in Bangladesh, Uganda, the Maldives and South Africa, as
well as covering hot topics such as translanguaging and English
after Brexit. With a new substantial introduction from the editor,
the Handbook is an ideal resource for students of applied
linguistics, as well as those in related degrees such as applied
English language and TESOL/TEFL.
