Description
This course will review the current and earlier literature on brain representation and processing of bilingualism and multilingualism. The neurolinguistic methods included are the study of spared and impaired language functions in individuals with aphasia, imaging techniques like fMRI and ERP, and language and cognition in special populations (talented and poor L2 learners, conference interpreters). We will treat the following foci of neurolinguistics research on bilingualism: the phenomena associated with bilingual and multilingual aphasia, research on treatment of multilinguals with aphasia, age-of-acquisition variables, neuroimaging studies of bilingual processing, aging bilingual brains.
