Professor Jennifer Dickinson served as the editor of a new special issue of Pragmatics (25:4 December 2015) published today, entitled “Language ideologies and writing systems”. The volume brings together a collection of articles by linguistic anthropologists studying the interplay between the production and interpretation of written language on one hand, and the language ideologies that organize that production and interpretation on the other. It includes Professor Dickinson’s own article “Plastic letters: Alphabet mixing and ideologies of print in Ukrainian shop signs”.
