Sommario/riassunto

Located at the intersection of historical pragmatics, letters and manuscript studies, this book offers a multi-dimensional analysis of the letters of Joan and Maria Thynne, 1575-1611. It investigates multiple ways in which socio-culturally and socio-familially contextualized reading of particular collections may increase our understanding of early modern letters as a particular type of handwritten communicative activity. The book also adds to our understanding of these women as individual users of English in their historical moment, especially in terms of literacy and their engagement with

Sommario/riassunto

In W.A.C. and Second-Language Writers, the editors and contributors pursue the ambitious goal of including within W.A.C. theory, research and practice the differing perspectives, educational experiences and voices of second-language writers. The chapters within this collection not only report new research but also share a wealth of pedagogical, curricular and programmatic practices relevant to second-language writers. Representing a range of institutional perspectives-including those of students and faculty at public universities, community colleges, liberal arts colleges and English-language schools-and a diverse set of geographical and cultural contexts, the editors and contributors report on work taking place in the United States, Asia, Europe and the Middle East.
