Interest in language play and linguistic creativity has increased in recent years  and the
topic has been taken up from a variety of perspectives. In this book  disparate approaches to
the topic are brought together  demonstrating that a number of phenomena whose similarities
might not have been immediately recognized  have an academic home under the umbrella of
language play and linguistic creativity. The contributions to this collection illustrate the
variety of questions that can be asked regarding the social  cognitive  emotional  political 
and cultural mechanisms and significance of innovative linguistic practices and point to new
directions of inquiry. Furthermore  the work exemplifies a variety of ways in which this
research can be carried out  as well as the range of contexts in which it might be investigated
including second language classrooms  online settings  and workplaces. Taken together  the
chapters serve to illustrate the range of work that we will be acceptingin the Language Play
and Creativity series  viewed individually  each makes a unique contribution to some aspect of
our understanding of creative language use.
