Communicating Cultures explores contemporary and historical issues. The
title may be read in various ways, including cultures as communicative
systems; cultures communicating with one another; or, communication about
cultures. The contributors to this volume represent different fields
within or related to European ethnology, such as anthropology, geography,
folklore, linguistics, or area studies.
“The editors have assembled a rich collection of papers. The questions
that they address – migration and diasporas; the invention of traditions;
education and language; media and representation – are at the very heart
of today’s agenda in cultural analysis.” Philip Schlesinger, from the
Foreword
