Sommario/riassunto

"The Afro-Brazilian continuum of Portuguese is the first publication in English to offer studies on a whole set of varieties of Portuguese in Africa as well as Brazilian Portuguese.

Most chapters directly address the idea of a continuum of Portuguese derived from parallel sociohistorical and linguistic factors in Africa and Brazil, due to the colonial expansion of the language to new multilingual settings. The volume contributes to the understanding of structural properties that are often shared by several varieties in this continuum, and describes the various situations and domains of language use as well as sociocultural contexts where they have emerged and where they are being used"--
