Recenzii
Introducing English Studies clearly focusses on students and offers various ways of engagement, such as the aforementioned key-questions, activities for critical engagement or online multiple-choice-tests quizzing readers on the contents. More importantly, the authors connect the cultural worlds of aspiring students with English Studies' time-honored themes ... Introducing English Studies offers an accessible, propaedeutic first contact with seminal theories, key-terms and concepts.
Introducing English Studies is an exciting, pedagogically-innovative, and field-redefining textbook.
An impressive textbook, particularly in terms of its scope, approachability, and currency. Our department has desperately needed a book like Introducing English Studies. Until now, there hasn't been a text that engages the relevance and interconnectedness of the diverse subfields we aim to cover, including literature, writing, linguistics, film, theory, and digital media. The language, examples, and exercises are consistently accessible and illuminating, likely to prepare students well for coursework and careers in English and English Education.
Introducing English Studies provides a much-needed and heretofore unavailable resource for professors and students, simultaneously encapsulating the breadth of our discipline and asserting its relevance. Students who complete a class with this textbook will be eminently prepared to both fluently participate in academic discourse, and apply their disciplinary knowledge in a wide variety of contexts.
By bringing together the diverse fields of English Studies in one volume, Introducing English Studies provides students with the tools to intentionally navigate their interactions with, and position within, this vibrant and ever-evolving discipline.
