Abstract
The chapter examines a series of concepts or concerns that we believe represent the most productive and innovative ways of approaching the study of language from a geographical perspective. We examine in turn: (1) the connections and tensions between the way in which languages are represented through different media, practised by individuals and become materialised through different things; (2) the way in which languages are embedded within particular places and spaces, whilst also being connected to distant spaces through a series of networks and flows; (3) how language use is framed and influenced by particular, often subtle, spatial and environmental contexts or, as it is fashionable to refer to them these days, ‘choice architectures’; (4) the strong connection that exists between languages and institutions of different kinds. We conclude the chapter by providing a conceptual framework that structures the remaining empirical chapters within the book.
