Winner of the Aldo and Jeanne Scaglione Prize for Studies in Germanic Languages and Literatures
Honorable Mention for The 2014 Laura Shannon Prize in Contemporary European Studies
Beyond the Mother Tongue examines distinct forms of multilingualism, such as writing in one socially unsanctioned "mother tongue" about another language (Franz Kafka); mobilizing words of foreign derivation as part of a multilingual constellation within one language (Theodor W. Adorno); producing an oeuvre in two separate languages simultaneously (Yoko Tawada); and mixing different languages, codes, and registers within one text (Feridun Zaimoglu).
