A Linguistic Anthropology of Praxis and Language Shift: Arvanitika (Albanian) and Greek in Contact - Oxford Studies in Language Contact
Tsitsipis, Lukas D. (Professor of Anthropology and Linguistics, Professor of Anthropology and Linguistics, The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece)
In the OXFORD STUDIES IN LANGUAGE CONTACT series, this book explores a case of linguistic shift in the Balkans. Focuses on Arvanitika, an Albanian variety spoken in Greece which is under threat through a process of attrition. Emphasises both the macro-processes responsible for the shift and the local communities' discourse as a complex response.
