Exophony is the practice of writing, usually creative, in a language that is not the writer's mother tongue. While the practice is age-old, the term is relatively new: French linguists such as Louis-Jean Calvet have only discussed "littérature exophone" since 1979, while the German equivalent, Exophonie, was used within the field of literary and cultural studies by Susan Arndt, Dirk Naguschewski and Robert Stockhammer in 2007. In English, Chantal Wright proposed its more widespread use in 2008, wrote a paper on it in 2010, and went on to teach a course at the University of Warwick in 2016/7.
