This fascinating book offers a comprehensive exploration of Russian
English as a World English variety. The authors introduce readers
to the history of language contact between Russian and English,
which has resulted in the Russianization of English and
Englishization of Russian. They also discuss the functions of
English as a lingua franca in the domains of politics, business and
tourism, as a tool in youth subcultures, education and scholarship,
and as a creative means in mass media, advertisement, music and
literature. The book engages with the major role of English in
expressing a speaker's cultural and personal identity within the
global community. This accessible and engaging work presents a
great number of concepts within the field of Russian linguistics,
as well as introducing readers to the outstanding Russian scholars
in the field. Essential reading for students and researchers across
a wide range of related fields.
