Language and Life – Reflections of a Language Teacher Online Sale
Description
First Published 1st November 2024
The theme that runs through this anthology of articles is called by the author ‘relationism’, and he dubs himself a ‘relationist’.
Throughout his long career as a teacher of English as a foreign language, he has subscribed to the Lakota Sioux precept mitakuye oyasin, a world-view which claims that all things are related to one another. In his teaching he has endeavoured to link, wherever possible, one element of language to another and language itself to its multifarious human contexts.
In so doing, he has, he believes, helped to motivate his students and improved their appreciation of the fundamental role of language in the expression of thought and feeling and in action. It is hoped that this anthology, or items within it, may be of interest not only to teachers and aspiring teachers but also to those who are interested in language and its elements per se.
