Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The twenty-eight articles presented in this volume offer a wide-ranging discussion of the cultural dimension of EFL (English as a Foreign Language) from the various theoretical positions available after the so-called cultural turn in the humanities. This cultural turn has had a major impact on the discipline of English Studies leading to a revision of existing approaches and the inclusion of new concepts and areas of research. In English-speaking countries, Cultural Studies have proven a particularly productive paradigm for developing new approaches to understanding culture/s in its/their manifold dimensions and manifestations. In EFL-debates in German-speaking countries, however, this set of approaches has received relatively little attention so far. This volume presents Cultural Studies as a prism through which new and existing concepts can be introduced and further developed. The focus is on contexts where concrete learning and teaching actually happen. Classroom-oriented topics range from “The American Dream” to “Cool Britannia”, from “Glimpses of Indian life” to “Hip hop and rap in the classroom”.
