Critical Language Awareness (Real Language Series)

Critical Language Awareness (Real Language Series) by Fairclough, Norman. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780582064676.

The proliferation of language awareness has now led to a need for a reassessment of the nature and functions of language awareness. This accessible collection of essays addresses that need in developing a more rigorous and critical theoretical underpinning for what language awareness is and should do. In particular, it argues that there needs to be a greater awareness of the social and political issues, and the context within which language awareness work is set.
