Pressestimmen
“Amit’s book certainly makes a vital contribution to the scholarly field of French language policy, French history, and national minorities through a historical-sociolinguistic lens. Graduate students and scholars working in these areas will find the historical-sociolinguistic trajectories of the various language policies applied in France’s regions stimulating and thought-provoking.” (Elisabeth Barakos, Journal of Language and Politics, Vol. 18 (3), 2019)“In this rich and ambitious book … Aviv Amit sets out to compare the wartime sociolinguistic trajectories of four of France’sminority-language communities, namely Breton, Occitan, Corsican and Alsatian. … this book certainly makes recommended reading for anyone interested in French language policy or French national minorities.” (Geoffrey Roger, Language Policy, Vol. 15, 2016)
