In this book Michael McCarthy and Ronald Carter describe the
discoursal properties of language and demonstrate what insights
this approach can offer to the student and teacher of language. The
authors examine the relationship between complete texts, both
spoken and written, and the social and cultural contexts in which
they function. They argue that the functions of language are often
best understood in a discoursal environment and that exploring
language in context compels us to revise commonly-held
understandings about the forms and meanings of language. In so
doing, the authors argue the need for language teachers, syllabus
planners and curriculum organisers to give greater attention to
language as discourse.
