Second Language Socialization and Learner Agency

Adoptive Family Talk

By: Lyn Wright Fogle

This book examines how Russian-speaking adoptees in three US families actively shape opportunities for language learning and identity construction in everyday interactions. By focusing on a different practice in each family (i.e. narrative talk about the day, metalinguistic discourse or languaging, and code-switching), the analyses uncover different types of learner agency and show how language socialization is collaborative and co-constructed. The learners in this study achieve agency through resistance, participation, and negotiation, and the findings demonstrate the complex ways in which novices transform communities in transnational contexts. The perspectives inform the fields of second language acquisition and language maintenance and shift. The book further provides a rare glimpse of the quotidian negotiations of adoptive family life and suggestions for supporting adoptees as young bilinguals.

Critical Perspectives on Language and Kinship in Multilingual Families

By: Lyn Wright

Applying critical kinship perspectives to the study of multilingual families, this book foregrounds family formation processes, gender, and sexuality in examinations of language use. Focusing on historically marginalized families (such as single parent, adoptive, and LGBTQ+), the analyses draw on data from private and public spheres including interviews and recorded interactions in homes, as well as memoirs, documentaries, news media, and even comedy. Lyn Wright addresses questions such as why single parents might be better at raising bilingual children, how multilingualism plays a role in constructing shared histories in adoptive families, and what translingual resources allow LGBTQ+ families to negotiate gender roles and family relationships. In addition, she examines the construction of monolingual, nuclear family norms in public discourse that potentially constrain families' everyday multilingual identities. Integrating related fields of family discourse, family language socialization, and family language policy unifies ways of understanding the intersections of kinship and language. The analyses in this book provide insight into multilingual family experiences, children's language development, and societal level language maintenance and shift.

Syllables of Recorded Time

The Story of the Canadian Authors Association 1921-1981

By: Lyn Harrington

Syllables of Recorded Time is a lively look at the development over the last six decades of a national authors’ association, with all its problems and foibles. Personalities such as Bliss Carman, Nellie McClung, Stephen Leacock, B.K. Sandwell, W.A. Deacon, Mazo de la Roche, John Murray Gibbon, Helen Chreighton, Watson Kirkconnell, Charles G.D. Roberts and Duncan Campbell Scott figure prominently in the amusing anecdotes of the early days, and Hugh MacLennan, Pierre Berton, Dorothy Livesay and Arthur Hailey in the later years. Syllables of Recorded Time highlights the discussions and legalities regarding issues of copyright, contracts, women’s role, cultural domination by Britain and the U.S.A., government funding and markets for writers. It tells why there was a spinoff of specialized interests including the Canadian Writers’ Foundation, the League of Poets, the Governor General’s Awards, the Canadian Copyright Institute, the Canadian Society of Children’s Authors, Illustrators and Performers and the Writers’ Union of Canada. Harrington vividly portrays all facets of the organization in this valuable resource book.

Lady Undertaker

By: Lyn Johnson,Lisa D. Branch-Tucker

As the title implies, Lady Undertaker tells the story of three women in the male-dominated world of the funeral industry. Set in a fictitious small town in Georgia, just outside Atlanta, the book spans 40 years, ending in the present day. The three women profiled are Leona, wife of a funeral director, Sydney, her daughter, and Kalen, her niece. Both younger women are licensed funeral directors. Lady Undertaker is a labor of love for authors Lyn Johnson and Lisa D. Branch-Tucker, two sister-friends who run a funeral home in Philadelphia, where they are both licensed funeral directors. They also own a catering and event planning business. They say as strong African-American women, Both our mothers and grandmothers are entrepreneurs. It was a natural fit for us to work in the funeral industry. They are currently writing two more books, Embalmer's Blues and The Final Viewing.

Moonwalking

By: Zetta Elliott,Lyn Miller-Lachmann

This novel in verse, alternately narrated by two boys in 1980s Greenpoint, Brooklyn, one channeled by Elliott and one by Miller-Lachmann, eloquently tackles race, culture and life on the spectrum." — The New York Times For fans of Jason Reynolds and Jacqueline Woodson, this middle-grade novel-in-verse follows two boys in 1980s Brooklyn as they become friends for a season. Punk rock-loving JJ Pankowski can't seem to fit in at his new school in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, as one of the only white kids. Pie Velez, a math and history geek by day and graffiti artist by night is eager to follow in his idol, Jean-Michel Basquiat's, footsteps. The boys stumble into an unlikely friendship, swapping notes on their love of music and art, which sees them through a difficult semester at school and at home. But a run-in with the cops threatens to unravel it all. From authors Zetta Elliott and Lyn Miller-Lachmann, Moonwalking is a stunning exploration of class, cross-racial friendships, and two boys' search for belonging in a city as tumultuous and beautiful as their hearts.

Analyzing Social Settings

A Guide to Qualitative Observation and Analysis, Fourth Edition

By: John Lofland,David Snow,Leon Anderson,Lyn H. Lofland

This book instructs the reader how to do a social science fieldstudy—a research genre often labeled “ethnography,” “qualitative research,” and/or “naturalistic research.” While field researchers across the social sciences may prefer one label over another, their studies are generally alike in featuring direct, qualitative observation of natural situations or settings primarily using the techniques of participant observation and/or intensive interviewing. High-quality social science fieldstudies are contingent on the successful completion of the interconnected tasks of gathering, focusing, and analyzing data, as well as writing up the results. The fourth edition of this classic work is a must for social researchers. The authors make learning how to do qualitative observation and analysis clear and engaging. Their book provides an educational and entertaining road map for pursuing high quality fieldstudies in social science research.

From Your Mat to Your Memoir

Creating a Yogic Writing Practice to Find and Write Your Life Stories

By: Rebecca Lyn Gold

When we encounter obstacles in our writing, it’s easy to assume the problem is all in our heads. But yoga philosophy teaches us that nothing is all in our heads, in part because our minds are just one layer through which we experience our world. We must make space for the stories to reveal themselves before we write. But how do we do that? Rebecca Lyn Gold tackles that question by introducing the pancha kosha theory in yogic philosophy, which highlights the five layers of awareness through which we experience life. She explores how to balance the philosophy alongside practices that bring awareness to each layer in a way that reveals memories and stories. She also leads readers on a twenty-one day journey that includes yogic practices and writing prompts to find and write your life stories. You will be introduced to yoga poses to open areas of the body where trauma or memories may be stored, breath control practices to stimulate and balance the brain, and meditations with mudras and mantras to gain insight and inspiration. Discover how to write deep, authentic life stories with the insights, lessons, and exercises in From Your Mat to Your Memoir.

Small Plates, Perfect Wines

Creating Little Dishes with Big Flavors

Small plates. Appetizers are the new entrees. . . . Call it the age of the do-it-yourself tasting menu." --New York Magazine * Imagine any-occasion entertaining made easy. Replace the tired entree with refreshing small-plate options and wine pairings. Small plates in the form of Middle Eastern mezze, Spanish tapas, Mexican antojitos, and Venetian cicchetti are usurping traditional entree-driven meals by offering greater selection and gastronomic fulfillment. To satisfy this growing niche, cookbook author Lori Lyn Narlock presents 50 delicious small-plate recipes and complementary wine pairings from the culinary experts at the Kendall-Jackson Wine Center, including celebrated chef Justin Wangler and winemaster Randy Ullom. * In addition to specific chapters on salads, vegetables, meat, seafood, and desserts, Narlock includes sample party menus accompanied by preparation plans, as well as tips on buying and serving wine, planning and executing entire menus, sample table settings and presentation ideas, and more. More than 50 appetite-inspiring four-color photographs illustrate Small Plates, Perfect Wines: Creating Little Dishes with Big Flavors. * Instead of languishing in a culinary quandary this holiday, consider flavorful pairings like Asparagus with Melted Brie served with sauvignon blanc or Duck and Spinach Empanadas with Persimmon Chutney complemented by a glass of pinot noir.
