In the World Library of Educationalists series, international
scholars themselves compile career-long collections of what they
judge to be their finest pieces-extracts from books, key articles,
salient research findings, major theoretical and/or practical
contributions-so the world can read them in a single manageable
volume. Readers thus are able to follow the themes and strands of
their work and see their contribution to the development of a
field, as well as the development of the field itself. Contributors
to the series include: Michael Apple, James A. Banks, Joel Spring,
William F. Pinar, Stephen J. Ball, Elliot Eisner, Howard Gardner,
John Gilbert, Ivor F. Goodson, and Peter Jarvis. In this volume,
Courtney B. Cazden, renowned educational sociolinguist, brings
together a selection of her seminal work, organized around three
themes: development of individual communicative competence in both
oral and written language and discourse; classroom interaction in
learning and teaching; and social justice/educational equity issues
in wider contexts beyond the classroom. Since the 1970s, Cazden has
been a key figure in the ethnography of schooling, focusing on
children's linguistic development (both oral and written) and the
functions of language in formal education, primarily but not
exclusively in the United States. Combining her experiences as a
former primary schoolteacher with the insight and methodological
rigor of a trained ethnographer and linguist, Cazden helped to
establish ethnography and discourse analysis as central
methodologies for analyzing classroom interaction. This capstone
volume highlights her major contributions to the field.
