After briefly describing what "monolingual" currently means in scholarship and public discourse, and the pejorative effects this common use may have on non-elite, non-cosmopolitan populations, Gramling sets out, across four chapters, to discover a new conception of monolingualism. Along the way, he explores how writers-Arabic, Latin American, German, and English-language-have in recent decades confronted monolingualism in their texts, and how they have critiqued the World Literature industry's increasing hunger for "translatable" novels. Moving from surprising and startlingly original case studies to brilliant reappraisals of widely-taught concepts in literary studies, The Invention of Monolingualism is a book to be reckoned with for students and scholars of literary theory, world literature, and the political and cultural implications of translation"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000771613 520__ $$a"The first book in the humanities and social sciences to offer an extensive conceptual definition of monolingualism, based on literary, applied-linguistic, technological, and translational examples"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000771613 650_0 $$aLanguages, Modern$$xStudy and teaching. 000771613 650_0 $$aLanguages, Modern$$xScholarships, fellowships, etc. 000771613 650_0 $$aLanguage experience approach in education. 000771613 650_0 $$aInterdisciplinary approach in education. 000771613 650_0 $$aEducation, Bilingual. 000771613 77608 $$iOnline version:$$aGramling, David, 1976- author.$$tInvention of monolingualism.$$dNew York : Bloomsbury Academic, 2016$$z9781501318085$$w(DLC) 2016024009 000771613 85200 $$bgen$$hPB36$$i.G55$$i2016 000771613 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:771613$$pGLOBAL_SET 000771613 980__ $$aBIB 000771613 980__ $$aBOOK
