《语言生态学》述介

Review of Ecology of Language

豪根（Haugen 1972）在谈到[任何语言与他所处环境的相互关系]时，曾将这种关系比作特定动植物与其生存环境之间的生态关系；至此以后，语言生态学的隐喻用法就被广泛使用，很多专著、书的章节和论文等都开始探讨生态学与语言、语言教学的关系。A. Creese、 P. Martin 和H. Hornberger 编辑的《语言与教育百科全书》（第二版）的第九卷《语言生态学》从历史回顾与理论视角、部分国家和地区的语言生态学、部分分散或零星社区语言生态学、多语背景下的课堂语言生态学、书面语、口语及话语的语言生态学等多个视角全面地探讨了语言生态学。本文希望通过将本书推介给国内语言学者，以引起我国语言学者对语言生态学研究的重视。

Since Haugen made a statement that language ecology may be defined as the study of interaction between any given language and its environment， the term [Ecology of Language] has increasingly appeared in the literature. This book review introduces A. Creese， P. Martin and H. Hornberger's new book Ecology of Language， which is made up of five sections: historical and theoretical perspectives， the language ecologies of selected countries and regions， the language ecologies of dispersed and sporadic communities， classroom language ecologies and the language ecology of literacies， oracies and discourses.
