More about the book
Focusing on the experiences of West-African migrants and refugees, the book explores how trauma narratives are shaped by linguistic and cultural contexts during interactions with Italian professionals. It highlights the disparities in interpretation due to differing discourse conventions and cultural norms. The author advocates for a 'hybrid ELF mode' to enhance intercultural communication, addressing the complexities of trauma categorization in specialized migration scenarios. This work is particularly relevant for students and scholars in applied linguistics, discourse analysis, and migration studies.
