Abstract:
The annual conference of the European Second Language Association, now in
its 11th year, provides an opportunity for the presentation of second
language research with a genuinely European flavour. The theoretical
perspectives adopted are wide-ranging and may fall within traditions
overlooked elsewhere. Moreover, the studies presented are largely
multi-lingual and cross-cultural, as befits the make-up of modern-day
Europe. At the same time, the work demonstrates sophisticated awareness of
scholarly insights from around the world. The EUROSLA yearbook presents a
selection each year of the very best research from the annual conference.
Submissions are reviewed and professionally edited, and only those of the
highest quality are selected. Contributions are in English (even though
other languages may have been used for the original conference presentation).
