Language is key to understanding culture, and culture is an
essential part of studying language. This reader focuses on the
interplay between Language and Intercultural Communication.
Reflecting the international nature of the field, this reader
covers a wide range of language and cultural contexts: Arabic,
Chinese, English (British, American, Australian and South African),
Greek, Hebrew, Japanese, Samoan and Spanish. Divided into six
parts, it covers: Culture, language and thought; Cultural
approaches to discourse and pragmatics; Communication patterns
across cultures; Teaching and learning cultural variations of
language use; Interculturality and Intercultural Communication in
professional contexts. With twenty two readings by eminent
authorities in the field as well as cutting-edge materials
representing current developments, the book explores the breadth
and depth of the subject as well as providing an essential overview
for both students and researchers. Each part begins with a clear
and comprehensive introduction, and is enhanced by discussion
questions, study activities and further reading sections. Alongside
a comprehensive Resource List, detailing important reference books,
journals, organisations and websites and an annotated Glossary of
key terms, the final section offers advice on how to carry out
research in Language and Intercultural Communication.
