Description
Second Language Pragmatics: From Theory to Research aims to reinvigorate this field, pointing the way forward to new methodologies that can drive, or be driven by, new theoretical developments. With a unique combination of leading international expertise in general pragmatics, L2 pragmatics, and research methodology, the authors describe in detail the methods, including the most recent techniques, by which pragmatics of all types can be pursued in L2 contexts. This volume argues that L2 pragmatics research needs to expand from its initial base by drawing from a wider range of sources, such as Corpus Linguistics and Psycholinguistics. Clear, accessible, and practical, Second Language Pragmatics will be valuable to novice and seasoned researchers alike in second language pragmatics, general pragmatics, and second language acquisition courses.
Reviews / Votes
"[A]n exceptionally valuable asset to the field, reviewing the existing methodologies and putting forward innovative methodologies along with their appropriate data collection methods for production and comprehension, an almost overlooked side of the continuum. ... All in all, Second Language Pragmatics: From Theory to Practice is of exquisite quality, making it, undoubtedly, one of the most invaluable recent publications within the realm of L2 pragmatics."Zohreh R. Eslami, Texas A&M University and Ali Derakhshan, Golestan University, in Intercultural Pragmatics 16(5)
