English has a considerable history in Germany, Austria and
Switzerland, and present-day English has a significant influence on
the vocabulary of modern German. Examining the ongoing influence of
English on German in these countries, Raymond Hickey leads a team
of authors to explore a wide range of topics, such as the history
of English teaching in Germany, the type of English spoken in
German-speaking countries today, and the role of English in German
society. Borrowings from English in present-day German, as well as
the use of English in public places, is also discussed, as is the
use of English by non-Germans living in Germany, and the situation
of Germany as a country with English as a foreign language.
Comparisons with other European countries are also analysed, and a
consideration of the German-English interface in places as far
apart as the United States and Namibia, is also presented.
