Marzieh Sadegh Pour - Cultural Linguistics and World Englishes

Marzieh Sadeghpour

Cultural Linguistics was founded by the late Professor Farzad Sharifian, an outstanding, field-defining scholar. The world-renowned linguist launched the series to advance multidisciplinary inquiry into the relationship between language and cultural conceptualisations. Building from his academic legacy, this series champions research that advances our understanding of how features of human languages encode culturally constructed conceptualisations of experience. Cultural Linguistics publishes monographs and edited volumes from diverse but complementary disciplines as wide-ranging as cross-cultural pragmatics, anthropological linguistics and cognitive psychology to present new perspectives on the intersection between culture, cognition and language. Featured themes include: Cultural Linguistics was founded by the late Professor Farzad Sharifian, an outstanding, field-defining scholar.
