The book can be rightly considered to add, in a significant way, to the research of integrative models of diachronic and synchronic analysis of linguistic variations, on a macrosocial and individual, idiolectal level. The identification and characterisation of the variations of the English language is done across the continents - more specifically, in the UK and USA, the empirical research being conducted on J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter heptalogy, both intralingually and interlingually -, with a focus on the status, role and dynamics of the most widespread language ever. The main aim, which can be also considered a statement of the author, is to describe the areas of linguistic and cultural convergence and divergence in the territorialization of the English language, going beyond Anglocentric views. - Professor hab.
