Overview

This is the first English edition of Robert Chaudenson's landmark text Des ?les, des hommes, des langues . Referring to the main varieties of creole French, Chaudenson argues against the traditional account of the origins of creoles for a more sophisticated view which takes account of the peculiar linguistic and social factors at play in colonial societies.

Reviews

'The editor and translators are to be commended for bringing this important work to an expanded public and, in collaboration with the author, for improving it along the way. The book contains a wealth of fascinating information that will make it of interest not just to creolists, but to anyone concerned with language and culture in postcolonial societies.' - The French Review
