Description

The volume has been written by a great variety of scholars and educators. Not only are the authors literally from all four corners of the world; they also represent, in spite of the large body of shared professional viewpoints and objectives, many different, even diverging, approaches, methodologies, and preferences. The papers have been grouped into a number of sections: 1. Language teaching; 2. Bilingualism; 3. Language testing; 4. Contrastive analysis: linguistic and cultural; 5. Language acquisition and performance; 6. Language, thought, and meaning; 7. Linguistic and literary analysis; 8. Lexical and terminological studies; 9. Language policy and language planning.
