Rethinking Heritage Language Education Authors: Themistoklis Aravossitas and Peter Pericles Trifonas Rethinking Heritage Language Education is an edited collection that brings together emerging and established researchers interested in the education field of Heritage Language Education to negotiate its concepts and practices, and investigate the correlation between culture and language from a pedagogic and cosmopolitical point of view. The scholars, who have contributed to the growth of Heritage Language Education as a discipline, reconsider and enrich their findings by drawing new lines across the boundaries of research and practice. Rethinking Heritage Language Education complements the previous work of these theorists, filling a void in the current literature around the question of Heritage Language Education. Features: In-depth analysis of Heritage Language Education from a conceptual point of view Detailed case studies of HLE in practice around the world including Canada, Australia, China, Spain and Switzerland Analysis of the role of schools in HLE and methods of HLE provision in schools Analysis of the role of communities and families in HLE Explanation of the importance of HLE for ethnic persistence in the 21st century.
