This volume examines the relationship between language and literacy
from a systemic functional perspective. The book starts with a
retrospective view on the development of systemic functional
linguistics hand-in-hand with language education practices, written
by eminent linguists Michael Halliday and Ruqaiya Hasan, and then
shows how this approach has developed, and informed language
education policy and theory. The second section presents examples
of how considerations of literacy education are carried out in
educational systems around the world based on systemic functional
linguistics. The contributors examine issues such as metadiscourse,
genre, cultural politics, and how systemic functional grammar can
help to raise literacy standards. The final section looks at
literacy in more specific disciplines at school and university,
including history, literature, and student writing. The essays
collected here present a comprehensive analysis of language and
literacy from a systemic functional perspective, written by
academics at the forefront of the field. It will be of interest to
researchers in systemic functional linguistics, or language and
education.
