O livro que voc\u00ea tem em m\u00e3os iconiza, de v\u00e1rias maneiras, a pr\u00f3pria postura cr\u00edtica que \u00e9 oferecida como um presente para as realiza\u00e7\u00f5es da vida do estudioso brasileiro nascido na \u00cdndia Kanavillil Rajagopalan.<\/p>\n
O leitor perceber\u00e1 a iconiza\u00e7\u00e3o desse presente em v\u00e1rios n\u00edveis deste livro: ele \u00e9 editado por dois estudiosos brasileiros que<\/span> trabalham longe dos polos econ\u00f4micos e culturais do Brasil; o volume n\u00e3o est\u00e1 escrito no idioma principal do Brasil, mas em (diferentes vers\u00f5es) do ingl\u00eas \u2013 australiano, cingal\u00eas, dinamarqu\u00eas, brasileiro, entre outros; os cap\u00edtulos incorporam a bio- e bibliografia de Rajagopalan em temas cr\u00edticos em estudos de linguagem; os temas cobrem grande parte da experi\u00eancia de Rajagopalan \u2013 desde atos de fala, \u00e0 mercantiliza\u00e7\u00e3o do ingl\u00eas, ao multilinguismo e ao ensino cr\u00edtico.<\/p>\n Nesse sentido, o pr\u00f3prio formato do livro \u00e9 uma marca do descentramento das l\u00ednguas e de seus usu\u00e1rios que ocuparam a carreira de Rajagopalan na Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Unicamp, e em muitas outras universidades no Brasil e no exterior, onde Rajagopalan colaborou em uma forma ou outra.<\/p>\n The book that you have in your hands iconizes, in multiple ways, the very critical stance that is offered as a gift for the lifetime accomplishments of Indian-born Brazilian scholar Kanavillil Rajagopalan. You will perceive the iconization of the gift in many levels of this book: it is edited by two Brazilian scholars who work away from the economic and cultural hubs in Brazil; the volume is not written in the major language of Brazil but in (different renditions of) English \u2013 Australian, Sri Lankan, Danish, Brazilian, among others; the chapters embed Rajagopalan\u2019s bio- and bibliography into critical themes in language studies; the themes cover much of Rajagopalan\u2019s expertise \u2013 from speech acts, to the commodification of English, to multilingualism, and to critical teaching. In this sense, the very format of the book is a token of the decentering of languages and its users that occupied Rajagopalan\u2019s career at the Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Unicamp, and at many other universities in Brazil and abroad, where Rajagopalan has collaborated in one form or another. This edited volume offers a range of topics that will interest readers from a transnational public. \/ Daniel Silva Federal – University of Santa Catarina\/Florian\u00f3polis\/ Brazil \/ National Council for Scientific and Technological Development.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" O livro que voc\u00ea tem em m\u00e3os iconiza, de v\u00e1rias maneiras, a pr\u00f3pria postura cr\u00edtica que \u00e9 oferecida como um presente para as realiza\u00e7\u00f5es da vida do estudioso brasileiro nascido na \u00cdndia Kanavillil Rajagopalan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6841,"template":"","meta":{"_joinchat":[]},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[59,31],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-6897","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-didatica","product_cat-linguistica","product_shipping_class-livro-pontes-editores-fisico","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"\nFestschrift for Kanavillil Rajagopalan<\/h4>\n
