Description

The collection contains the metadata from interviews with multilingual individuals conducted using

Brigitta Busch's language portrait method. These interviews explore how individuals experience and

evaluate their languages emotionally and how they position themselves toward language ideologies

(Busch, 2021, pp. 190, 196). Empirical research uses LPs to visualize semiotic resources on a body

silhouette. Participants use colours to map their linguistic repertoire while recounting life stories and

reflecting on experiences, people, places, and past, present, and future practices (Busch 2021, p.

198). An LP is not a direct representation of one’s repertoire. Rather, it is a co-constructed,

contextual product that emerges through dialogue with the interviewer (Busch, 2018). The first five

interviews were conducted with Ukrainian migrants in Poland.
