The author analyzes the spoken memories and discourses of Irish-Argentine descendants to trace the socio-political evolution of a bilingual, bicultural community from World War II to the present day. In so doing, O?Brien reveals a legacy of emigration that is without precedent in the global Irish Diaspora, and which is deeply relevant to today?s global Irish citizenry in its challenging of preconceived notions of what it is to be Irish in the New World. As well as contributing to understandings of an immigrant linguistic journey over three generations, the book also provides a vital ethnographic portrait of an Irish descendant community that is acutely aware of its vulnerability and invisibility in an increasingly pluralistic South American society. This book will appeal to an interdisciplinary audience including scholars of migration, oral history, folklore, bilingualism, memory, sociolinguistics, narrative performance and Irish Diaspora studies. Sarah O?Brien is Assistant Professor of Applied Linguistics at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland, and Director of the Centre for English Language Learning and Teaching there. She was formerly Director of Bilingual Education at Northern New Mexico College, USA, and a recipient of the IRCHSS doctoral award for her research on the Irish in Post-World War II Britain. Her publications explore linguistic and cultural acquisition in contemporary migrant communities with a particular focus on Latin America and Ireland. 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aDiscourse analysis 606 $aMultilingualism 606 $aGreat Britain?History 606 $aHistoriography 606 $aEthnology?Latin America 606 $aSociolinguistics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N44000 606 $aDiscourse Analysis$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N51000 606 $aMultilingualism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N55000 606 $aHistory of Britain and Ireland$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717020 606 $aMemory Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/711010 606 $aLatin American Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411080 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 615 0$aDiscourse analysis. 615 0$aMultilingualism. 615 0$aGreat Britain?History. 615 0$aHistoriography. 615 0$aEthnology?Latin America. 615 14$aSociolinguistics. 615 24$aDiscourse Analysis. 615 24$aMultilingualism. 615 24$aHistory of Britain and Ireland. 615 24$aMemory Studies. 615 24$aLatin American Culture. 676 $a410 700 $aO'Brien$b Sarah$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01062740 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910252702503321 996 $aLinguistic Diasporas, Narrative and Performance$92528188 997 $aUNINA
