Princess of Power was something God planted in the heart of A. F. Baker during her father’s bypass surgery. Her father was her rock and was always there for her as her gentle giant, but his mortality was something that made her have to look deep inside herself as to who she was and what she really believed about herself. Was she a daughter of the Most High King? Was she a strong warrior and conqueror in God’s army? Or was she just a troubled little farm girl that failed in many areas of life and was now destined to be a statistic and burden on her family? Through much arguing with God and delayed obedience, A. F. Baker came to see herself as the Word of God says—not just a “least of these.” As for the book, God reminded her that “she was meant for such times as these.” If she was going through it, then she was to help and/or prevent others from having to walk the same road. If hardship did come then to teach women to look deep inside themselves and see the princesses of power they were created to be.

The volumes in this series set out to provide a contemporary record of the spread and development of the English language in South, Southeast, and East Asia from both a linguistic and literary perspective. Each volume will reflect themes that cut across national boundaries, including the study of language policies; globalization and linguistic imperialism; English in the media; English in law, government and education; 'hybrid' Englishes; and the bilingual creativity manifested by the vibrant creative writing found in a swathe of Asian societies. This book gives an in-depth analysis of the use of the English language in modern Japan. It explores the many ramifications the Japanese-English language and culture contact situation has for not only Japanese themselves, but also others in the international community. Data for this book has been gathered using anthropological ethnographic fieldwork, augmented by archival sources, written materials, and items from popular culture and the mass media. An interdisciplinary approach, including those of anthropological linguistics, sociolinguistics, cognitive science and symbolic anthropology, is taken in the exploration of the topics here. This book's arguments focus on four major theoretical linguistic and social issues, namely the place of the Japanese-English case in the larger context of 'World Englishes'; the place of the Japanese-English case in a general theory of language and culture contact; how Japanese English informs problems of categorization, meaning construction and cognition; and what it says about the social construction of identity and sense of self, nationalism and race. This book will be of interest to linguists, anthropologists, sociologists, cognitive scientists, and all readers who are interested in language contact, sociolinguistics, English as an international language, and World Englishes. It will also appeal to those who are interested in Japan and popular culture.
