The process of turning this volume into a finished product has been a long one. I am grateful to all the inspirational colleagues and students from my time living and teaching in Italy, Britain, Russia and Brazil, and to those I met elsewhere at seminars usually organised by Nick Wadham-Smith of the British Council. A smaller number of scholars, colleagues and friends substantially influenced the final outcome: you will recognise yourselves in the pages that follow, and I am indebted to you all. I am also grateful to the Department of English Language at the University of Glasgow for sparing me for an academic session, so that I could write the first full draft of the manuscript. Christian Kay, Alan Pulverness and Mike Byram generously read versions of the work in progress and made constructive comments. Alison Phipps spurred me to get the job done. Throughout, Augusta Alves has been a constant source of ideas, support and love – to her this work is dedicated. The errors that remain are, obviously, my own responsibility.
