This book offers several insights into cross-cultural and
multilingual learning, drawing upon recent research within two main
areas: Language Studies and Multilingual Language
Learning/Teaching. It places particular emphasis on the Polish
learning environment and Poles abroad. Today's world is an
increasingly complex network of cross-cultural and multilingual
influences, forcing us to redefine our Selves to include a much
broader perspective than ever before. The first part of the book
explores attitudes toward multiculturalism in British political
speeches, joking behaviour in multicultural working settings,
culture-dependent aspects of taboos and swearing, and expressive
language of the imprisoned, adding a diachronic perspective by
means of a linguistic study of The Canterbury Tales. In turn, the
studies in the second part focus on visible shifts in contemporary
multilingualism research, learners' attitudes towards multiple
languages they acquire, teachers' perspectives on the changing
requirements related to multiculturalism, and immigrant brokers'
professional experience in the UK.
