Multilingual Lives: Stories of Language and Culture Learning

In recent years Applied Linguistics has witnessed a narrative turn, with growing interest in complementing its logico-scientific core with analysis of stories about multilingual experiences. This course will explore how the intersection of knowledge domains from the social sciences and the humanities can enrich our understanding and appreciation of multilingualism, including its challenges and its intellectual benefits. This course counts for the Global and International Studies (GLIS) interdisciplinary major in the Culture and Identity pathway.
