An Introduction to Applied Linguistics

From Practice to Theory

Shortlisted for the BAAL Book Prize 2000Language and language problems affect all of us and are an integral part of our social experience. In An Introduction to Applied Linguistics, Professor Davies takes this simple fact as his starting point and sets out to show that applied linguistics is better understood by doing it than studying it or reading about it. Beginning with the history and definitions of applied linguistics, he then looks at the full spectrum of 'institutional' and 'non-institutional' uses of language, spanning not only language learning and teaching but also language as a socio-psychological phenomenon. Whilst setting this practical outlook against the historical background of changing public needs and competing ideologies, Davies shows that a theory can be derived. For first-time students of applied linguistics, people working professionally with language and those generally interested in the relationship between linguistics and applied linguistics, this book provides an excellent introduction to the problems and issues that will arise.* Introductory text and the foundation volume for the series* Emphasis on the importance of experience* Contains examples of applied linguistics in language teaching and othersettings* Exercises and demonstrated examples included

An Introduction to Applied Linguistics

From Practice to Theory

This title is intended for undergraduate students of Linguistics, Masters' level students on courses in Applied Linguistics, Language in Education, Language Planning and more, and language teachers.This Second Edition of the foundational textbook, "An Introduction to Applied Linguistics" provides a state of the art account of contemporary applied linguistics. The kinds of language problems of interest to applied linguists are discussed and a distinction drawn between the different research approach taken by theoretical linguists and by applied linguists to what seem to be the same problems. Professor Davies describes a variety of projects which illustrate the interests of the field and highlight the marriage it offers between practical experience and theoretical understanding. The increasing emphasis of applied linguistics on ethicality is linked to the growth of professionalism and to the concern for accountability, manifested in the widening emphasis on critical stances.This, Davies argues, is at its most acute in the tension between giving advice as the outcome of research and taking political action in order to change a situation which, it is claimed, needs ameliorisation. This dilemma is not confined to applied linguistics and may now be endemic in the applied disciplines.The book has been updated throughout and provides an excellent, up-to-date introduction to the problems and issues that arise in the practice of applied linguistics.This book considers the main ongoing issues in applied linguistics and their current manifestations in, for example, the native speaker and World Englishes. It examines the influence of linguistics, cognitive science and philosophy on applied linguistics and makes a contrast with educational linguistics. It proposes that a key issue for the profession will increasingly be the tension between advice and action. It suggests that applied linguistics is a theorising rather than a theoretical discipline
