Abstract

This book review presents the most recent scientific collection of scholarly views on the various facets of identity via the lenses of language, memory and cultural representations, as they appear in the 21^st century. The contributing editors, Onorina Botezat, Ramona Mihăilă, George T. Siposm and Ludmila Braniște, suggest an interdisciplinary approach, where the four parts of the book are designed to follow a logical progression that moves from the practical and methodological to the symbolic and historical, offering both applied insights and theoretical reflection. The work embraces a genuinely multilingual and multicultural approach, reflecting the varied contexts in which language, literature, and cultural identity are both produced and studied. Contributions appear in English, French, German, and Italian, allowing each author to engage with their subject matter in the language best suited to its conceptual, historical, or disciplinary nuances.
