“Bringing the subject back into multilingualism research:
exploring the notions of linguistic repertoire
and lived experience of language.”
The concept of lived language experience (Spracherleben)
is situated in the debate on the conceptualisation of the
linguistic repertoire in the context of mobility and migration.
Against the background of phenomenological research,
Brigitta Busch investigates the bodily and emotional
prerequisites for speaking and experiencing language.
