The study of World Englishes has seen a revolutionary shift during
the last twenty years. Before 1980, there was a general assumption
within Britain, the United States and many other societies where
English was taught, that the primary target was the 'Standard
English' of Britain. However, during the 1980s interest grew in the
identification and description of global varieties of English,
marking a shift in focus from 'English' to 'Englishes'.
Professor Braj Kachru (b. 1932) has pioneered, shaped and defined the scholarly field of world Englishes. He is the founder and co-editor of World Englishes, the associate editor of the Oxford Companion to the English Language and contributor to the Cambridge History of the English Language. His research on world Englishes, the Kashmiri language and literature, and theoretical and applied studies on language and society has resulted in more than 25 authored and edited volumes and more than 100 research papers, review articles, and reviews. The third volume of these Collected Works details Kachru's key studies from the 19070s to 1990s in the areas of linguistics, multilingualism and language contact, including some of his work on language in India and South Asia.
