The Secret Language of the Crossroads
Irish Americans especially will be delighted to know, they have been speaking Irish all along in their slang and American English, while believing and bemoaning that they had lost their native tongue many years ago. With imagination and scholarship, Cassidy has restored this hidden treasure to us in a book that is filled with revelations, wit and humor.
~ Bob Scally, Professor Emeritus, New York University, author, The End of Hidden Ireland.
John Rickford ~ Cassidy's book is wonderful.
AMERICAN BOOK AWARD 2000
Spoken Soul: The Story of Black English by John R. Rickford, Russell J. Rickford (Contributor)
John R. Rickford is the Martin Luther King Centennial Professor of Linguistics and African and Afro-American Studies at Stanford University.
"That mainstream English is essential to our self-preservation is indisputable . . . but it is not necessary to abandon Spoken Soul to master Standard English, any more than it is necessary to abandon English to learn French or to deprecate jazz to appreciate classical music." |
