Reseña del libro "Sounds of Advocacy, Language and Liberation: Papers in Honour of Hubert Devonish (en Inglés)"
Honouringthe remarkable career of Professor Hubert Devonish, a leading scholar inlinguistics, language education, and cultural studies, Soundsof Advocacy, Language and Liberation provides a representative spread oflinguistics addressing critical areas of academic and social responsibilitythrough the exploration and analysis of theoretical and sociocultural concerns.Through his tireless research Devonish illuminated the complexities ofCaribbean Creole languages and championed their rightful place in academia andsociety.This festschriftreveals the impact of Devonish's work on linguistic theory, spanningfascinating topics like implosives in Jamaican Creole and the mathematicalconstraints on allowable sentences in Guyanese Creole. The papers contain insightfulanalyses of the relationship between language, education, and culture, including Devonish's groundbreaking work on Creole language literacy and theimportance of promoting multilingualism. Provocative discussions on theintersection of politics, law, and language, shed light on Devonish'sunwavering commitment to social justice and the empowerment of marginalisedcommunities. Morethan just a collection of academic contributions, Sounds of Advocacy serves as a tribute to Professor Devonish'sdedication to intellectual inquiry, social justice, and the advancement ofCaribbean languages and cultures.
