Abstract

This book is a labour of love. Students of Robert Le Page have compiled and edited a selection of the writings of their inspiring teacher. Le Page (1920–2006) had a long and productive life—he lived and worked in the UK, Jamaica and Malaya, and left his stamp on the study of language and society at all these places. Even these ‘selected’ essays run to a good 630 pages. Preceded by a substantial 24-page interview, this makes the volume a fine introduction to the range of Le Page’s scholarship
