Abstract

In today's plural societies, increasingly complex linguistic landscapes are emerging, which is also being followed with ever greater attention in the academic context. Thus, multilingualism research is more and more dealing with topics such as language repertoires, language regimes and the handling of multilingualism on a social and political level. Against this background, the topic of language(s) and the exploitation of their potential by individuals with a so-called migration background will be examined in the following. From this internal perspective, which will focus in particular on the point of view of women – intellectuals, artists, authors and activists –, in this contribution will be presented the considerations expressed in this regard by the journalist, author and internet activist Kübra Gümüşay in her recently published essay volume "Sprache und Sein".
