Migrant Children on Stage: Their Role as Bilingual Brokers
di Federica Ceccoli
This book sets out to explore how CLB is performed by bilingual migrant children and their interactional contribution within the interaction they broker. Real-life interactions were audio-recorded in order to study how child language brokers co-construct meaning and participate in the communication they broker.
The findings suggest that relying on authentic naturally occurring data to investigate such a complex phenomenon is a valuable approach. They also highlight the interactional agency and the active role of child language brokers, who are agentic and empowered participant in the conversation they broker.
Federica Ceccoli is Research Fellow at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia and Adjunct Professor at the University of Bologna. Her academic research focuses on Public Service Interpreting, Non Professional Interpreting and Child Language Brokering. She is also freelance interpreter and translator.
