TIM WILLIAM
MACHAN
What is English? Can we be as certain as
we usually are when we say something is not
English! To find some answers Tim
Machan
explores the language s present and past, and
looks ahead to its futures among the one and
a half billion people who speak it. His search
is fascinating and important, for definitions of
English have influenced education and law in
many countries and helped shape the identities
of those who live in them.
Finding an account that fits the constantly
changing varieties of English ¡s, Tim
Machan
finds, anything but simple. But he rises to the
challenge, grappling with its elusive essence
through episodes in its history. He looks at
the ambitions of Caxton, the preoccupations
of Johnson, and the eloquence of Churchill,
tussles with the jargons of contemporary
business, and pursues his object from rural
America to James Cook s Australia. He
examines
creóles,
pidgins, and dialects, and
takes apart competing histories showing
their assumptions and prejudices. Finally he
reveals the stable category English, resting
paradoxically within its constantly mutating
forms and varieties.
This is a book for everyone interested in
English and the role of language in society
and culture.
