Abstract:

Including a disparate range of texts from an interview with Madonna to
an article from the Calcutta Telegraph and core readings from Deborah
Cameron, Rosina Lippi-Green and Norman Fairclough, this book brings
together sample texts, commentaries, activities and key secondary
texts. It covers every conceivable topic in the field, including
accent and dialect, ethnicity and multilingualism, class, age, gender,
pidgins and national and international Englishes. This book will be
the number one resource for all people trying to understand the and
engage with the field.
