Interest in language play and linguistic creativity has increased
in recent years, and the topic has been taken up from a variety of
perspectives. In this book, disparate approaches to the topic are
brought together, demonstrating that a number of phenomena whose
similarities might not have been immediately recognized, have an
academic home under the umbrella of language play and linguistic
creativity. The contributions to this collection illustrate the
variety of questions that can be asked regarding the social,
cognitive, emotional, political, and cultural mechanisms and
significance of innovative linguistic practices and point to new
directions of inquiry. Furthermore, the work exemplifies a variety
of ways in which this research can be carried out, as well as the
range of contexts in which it might be investigated, including
second language classrooms, online settings, and workplaces. Taken
together, the chapters serve to illustrate the range of work that
we will be accepting in the Language Play and Creativity series;
viewed individually, each makes a unique contribution to some
aspect of our understanding of creative language use.
