This volume investigates identity traits in academic discourse. Its
main purpose is to better understand how and to what extent
language forms and functions are adapting to the globalisation of
academic discourse. Key factors of verbal behaviour such as the
affiliation of actors to one or more cultures have been found to
interact, producing transversal identities that are independent of
local traits, with a tendency to merge and hybridise in an
intercultural sense. The volume consists of three main parts: The
first deals with identity traits across languages and cultures, as
the use of a given language affects the writing of a scholar,
especially when it is not his/her native language. The second
comprises investigations of identity features characterising
specific disciplinary communities or marking a differentiation from
other branches of knowledge. The third part of the volume deals
with identity aspects emerging from genre and gender variation.
