Sobre este artículo
New York: W.W. Norton & Company, 2010. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 6x1x9. First edition. 1/4 chip on rear jacket corner. 2010 Hard Cover. xii, 331 pp. It seems impossible: a small island in the North Atlantic, colonized by Rome, then pillaged for hundreds of years by marauding neighbors, becomes the dominant world power in the nineteenth century. In this provocative new look at the course of empire, Robert McCrum shows how the language of the Anglo-American imperium has become the world's lingua franca. In the twenty-first century, writes the author, English + Microsoft = Globish.
