Title: Book: EUROSLA Yearbook, Volume 9 (2009)
Body: From http://www.benjamins.com/cgi-bin/t_bookview.cgi?bookid=EUROSLA%209 EUROSLA Yearbook Volume 9 (2009) Edited by Leah Roberts, Daniel Véronique, Anna Nilsson and Marion Tellier Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company The annual conference of the European Second Language Association provides an opportunity for the presentation of second language research with a genuinely European flavor. The theoretical perspectives adopted are wide-ranging and may fall within traditions overlooked elsewhere. Moreover, the studies presented are largely multi-lingual and cross-cultural, as befits the make-up of modern-day Europe. At the same time, the work demonstrates sophisticated awareness of scholarly insights from around the world. The EUROSLA yearbook presents a selection each year of the very best research from the annual conference.

Title: Book: The Idea of English in Japan
Body: From http://www.multilingual-matters.com/display.asp?isb=9781847692016 The Idea of English in Japan: Ideology and the Evolution of a Global Language Author: Philip Seargeant Publisher: Multilingual Matters Summary: This book examines the ways in which English is conceptualized as a global language in Japan, and considers how the resultant language ideologies - drawn in part from universal discourses; in part from context-specific trends in social history - inform the relationships that people in Japan have towards the language. The book analyses the specific nature of the language's symbolic meaning in Japan, and how this meaning is expressed and negotiated in society. It also discusses how the ideologies of English that exist in Japan might have implications for the more general concept of 'English as a global language'. To this end it considers the question of what constitutes a 'global' language, and how, if at all, a balance can be struck between the universal and the historically-contingent when it comes to formulating a theory of English within the world.
