Introduction

The complex discipline of Language, Literature, and Cultural Studies aims at comprehending the global environment by exploring the unifying elements, in terms of intellect, emotion or spirituality, underlying the cultures of varied social groups reflected in the language and literature of our times. Culture, after all, is not an arena for harmonious unfolding of the nationalist or universal spirit, as is often supposed. Nor is ‘Culture’ simply a zone of aesthetic. It is often a field, of contention and conflict, among classes and other social forces that struggle for dominance.

This fascinating online volume will enable its readers to engage themselves with a wide gamut of issues and ideas underlying the dynamics of cultural exchange among people and nation states that are becoming more and more globalized and detached from any specific culture. The objective of studying Culture in today’s era is to combat the elitist, revivalist, communalist culture that is rearing its ugly head in some quarters of the world. This volume will bring researchers, scholars and translators of culture into a dialogue where they will share their experiences on how recent communication and literary theories emanating from the cultural studies movement are helping to understand the matrix shaping globalization. The serious deliberations will help to gain an insight into the dynamics of difference and enable us to appreciate the multicultural ethos of our global village.

This is only a brief introduction to the volume Language Learning and Teaching. There are sixty articles included in this volume. PLEASE CLICK HERE TO READ THE ARTICLES IN PRINTER-FRIENDLY VERSION. You may like to download the entire volume free of charge and save it in a CD for future use.
