This innovative book contributes to a paradigm shift in the study
of creole languages, forging new empirical frameworks for
understanding language and culture in sociohistorical contact. The
authors bring together archival sources to challenge dominant
linguistic theory and practice and engage issues of power,
positioning marginalized indigenous peoples as the center of, and
vital agents in, these languages' formation and development.
Students in language contact, pidgins and creoles, Caribbean
studies, and postcolonial studies courses-and scholars across many
disciplines-will benefit from this book and be convinced of the
importance of understanding creoles and creolization.
