“…Η σχετική βιβλιογραφία περιλαμβάνει πολλούς όρους που γειτνιάζουν με το περιεχόμενο της διαγλωσσικότητας, όπως η πολυγλωσσική σύνθεση (polyglot synthesis) (Beaujour, 1989), όρος, ο οποίος δεν περιορίζεται σε γλωσσικά στοιχεία αλλά παραπέμπει και σε πολιτισμικά, κοινωνικά, ιστορικά και προσωπικά κείμενα που σμιλεύουν νέες πραγματικότητες ή και ο όρος 'πολύ-εθνόλεκτος' (multi-ethnolect) (Clyne, 2000), που εκφράζει τη δια-εθνοτική επικοινωνία με χαρακτηριστικά από διάφορες εθνολέκτους. Θεωρώ ότι η ενασχόληση με πολυεθνολέκτους αποτελεί εξ ορισμού μία διαγλωσσική διαδικασία, στον βαθμό που η διαγλωσσικότητα, όπως προτείνουν οι García & Li Wei (2014), δηλώνει τους συνδυασμούς των στοιχείων από διαφορετικές γλώσσες που κάνουν τα δίγλωσσα άτομα, δημιουργώντας νέους χώρους συνύπαρξης και μοιράσματος γλωσσικών και πολιτισμικών ταυτοτήτων.…”

This paper, titled “Translanguaging and identity: friend or gharīb”, is based on the experiences and challenges of some of the participants in my 2017 research, which led to the book SiDaYes: beyond bilingualism to translanguaging. Here I will attempt to highlight some aspects of being translingual, which I believe can be of interest and will most likely continue to concern us in the future, within the wider field of language and culture contact. Identity issues seem to be core issues within the area of translanguaging, both at an individual and a social level. One of the central notions that is discussed is that of being a ‘gharīb’, or an outsider, which seems to have negative and possible positive aspects, according to the individual experience and the overall context in which languages form a linguistic universe of translanguaging experience. 换句话说，多语言实践不断挑战我们对自我、身份的认知。我们研究这一领域的人需要不断寻求理解身份认同问题的新方法[i]。

“…Nabokov implies that, although his synaesthesia was hereditary, his early, highly visual sensory experiences encouraged its development and may have influenced its path (1967, 36;Lvovich 2012). Also, for multilinguals such as Nabokov for whom French, English and Russian alphabets each produced different synaesthetic concurrents (1967,(34)(35), the synaesthetic experience may be heightened (Beaujour 1989;Lvovich 2012). Given that English and Mandarin speakers think about time differently (Boroditsky, Fuhrman, and McCormick 2011), the impact of bi-or multi-linguality on time perception is likely to be as powerful as it is varied.…”

The synaesthetic author Vladimir Nabokov undertakes extensive consideration of the relationship between time and space, and its manifestation in human perception, throughout his fictional and autobiographical writing. The following dissertation considers this in the light time-space synaesthesia, a neurological phenomenon where time is visualized in a spatial form often external to the subject's body. Using the idea that synaesthesia exists on a continuum alongside common constructs integral to cognitive perception such as cross-modality and metaphor, these three will be explored in detail in Nabokov's work through a multidisciplinary lens incorporating literature, cognitive science, philosophy and anthropology.

“…Given the varying contexts for, and motivations of, translingual writers and the specifics of their trajectories, generalizations must inevitably be made with a degree of caution. Nevertheless, there do appear to be some characteristics shared by translingual writers such as greater tolerance of ambiguity and uncertainty, and awareness of relativity (see Beaujour 1989). In addition, certain overarching features, both stylistic and thematic, typical of the work of translingual writers, include but are not limited to, a focus on language and issues of translation (see Doloughan 2016), representation and/or enactment of linguistic, cultural, and often generic border-crossing, ludic and/or (self-)reflexive and critical commentary (see Sommer 2004).…”
