About this book
Reviews
“At a time of renewed interest in France’s regional languages, this study provides a much-needed, up-to-date sociolinguistic portrait of one of the lesser-studied linguistic minorities. Ambitious in its scope, it combines empirical analyses of language attitudes, broader language ideologies and linguistic variation to make a valuable contribution to language rights debates.” (Leigh Oakes, Reader in French and Linguistics, Queen Mary, University of London, UK)
