Culture Bound PB

Více o produktu ↓

Kniha je určena učitelům, kteří chtějí do své výuky zapojit kulturu. Články poskytují pohled na to, jak se jazyk a kultura vzájemně ovlivňují Culture Bound is designed to give language teachers a basis for introducing a cultural component into their teaching. The articles give a perspective on how language and culture interact and explore in particular the difference between interacting with another culture and entering it: language students are encouraged to understand the new culture without necessarily embracing it. This selection brings together representative practical and theoretical material written by a variety of scholars and teachers in the field. The essays are organized under three headings: language, thought, and culture; cultural differences and similarities; and classroom applications. The collection as a whole brings both breadth and depth to a topic that has been strangely neglected despite its recognized importance. Contents: Preface; Part I. Language, Thought, and Culture: 1.
