Abstract:
Routledge Applied Linguistics is a series of comprehensive resource
books, providing students and researchers with the support they need
for advanced study in the core areas of English language and Applied
Linguistics.
Each book in the series guides readers through three main sections,
enabling them to explore and develop major themes within the
discipline. Section A, Introduction, establishes the key terms and
concepts and extends readers' techniques of analysis through
practical application. Section B, Extension, brings together
influential articles, sets them in context, and discusses their
contribution to the field. Section C, Exploration, builds on
knowledge gained in the first two sections, setting thoughtful tasks
around further illustrative material. This enables readers to engage
more actively with the subject matter and encourages them to develop
their own responses. Throughout the book, topics are revisited,
extended, interwoven and deconstructed, with the reader's
understanding strengthened by tasks and follow-up questions.
