The use of literature in second language teaching has been
advocated for a number of years, yet despite this there have only
been a limited number of studies which have sought to investigate
its effects. Fewer still have focused on its potential effects as a
model of spoken language or as a vehicle to develop speaking
skills. Drawing upon multiple research studies, this volume fills
that gap to explore how literature is used to develop speaking
skills in second language learners. The volume is divided into two
sections: literature and spoken language and literature and
speaking skills. The first section focuses on studies exploring the
use of literature to raise awareness of spoken language features,
whilst the second investigates its potential as a vehicle to
develop speaking skills. Each section contains studies with
different designs and in various contexts including China, Japan
and the UK. The research designs used mean that the chapters
contain clear implications for classroom pedagogy and research in
different contexts.
