Description
Learning a foreign language presupposes a willingness to open up to the world, to start a lifelong dialogue with cultures from other countries. In English language teacher training courses, we discuss the most effective methodologies to promote English language learning, always seeking an objectivity that often distances the areas of applied linguistics, on the one hand, and literary studies, on the other, creating, as a result, a false dichotomy between language and literature. Literature has an enormous potential to awaken the imagination, generate identification, instigate deep and necessary discussions, as well as make classes more enjoyable and meaningful, so literary texts also need to be considered as a highly relevant pedagogical resource in teaching English. The literature will increase all language skills because literature will expand linguistic knowledge. Literature consists of linguistic enrichment that makes it easier for students to study the language, especially its skills. The literature will surely provide the learners with the characteristics of modern English, as well as how the English language system can be used to communicate. In addition, literature can make students think creatively, critically, and analytically. This book ‘Literature in ELT Classrooms' goes beyond a simple exposition of problems related to the teaching of language and literature. Its reading is not restricted to discussing contemporary perspectives in these fields of education but addresses relevant aspects related to this theme. There are eleven chapters filled with experiences, ideas, samples, projects and struggles that provide us with a journey filled with knowledge.
