Multilingual Writing in Entanglement
Autor Xiqiao Wangen Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 ian 2026
This longitudinal qualitative study follows Morgan and Leo through their undergraduate careers, collecting rich ethnographic data across private, academic, and digital spaces. The resulting theoretical framework conceptualizes multilingual writing as simultaneously strategic, agentive, creative, diffused, contingent, and messy—a phenomenon shaped by dynamic interplay between ephemeral encounters and established practices. Employing chronotopic figuring as a methodological tool, Wang illuminates aspects of multilingual writing often elided in research: fleeting encounters that energize composition, reciprocal relationships that distribute writing labor, unexpected detours that redirect the writing process, and the layering of writing and identity practices across multiple historical trajectories. This approach moves beyond examining writing in isolated moments to trace how meaning emerges across languages, modes, and spacetimes.
Multilingual Writing in Entanglement offers crucial insights into how international students strategically and improvisationally reconfigure their semiotic and rhetorical repertoires to write multilingual lives into meaning. This work is influential for scholars and educators in composition, literacy studies, multilingual education, ESL, and linguistics.

Recenzii
“A beautifully written and intricately theorized work of great importance to all who care about the teaching, learning, and practicing of writing. It is a gift to the field.”
—Kate Vieira, University of Wisconsin–Madison
“The many dimensions of these students help writing instructors move past deficit mindsets and better appreciate the many ways that multilingual students approach writing and the writing process. This book humanizes multilingual international students in ways that I have not encountered before.”
—Julia Kiernan, Lawrence Technological University
