How to Analyse Texts
A toolkit for students of English"Without a doubt the most practical and innovative textbook on text analysis on the market. Not only do Carter and Goddard provide clear explanation of theoretical concepts, but they also provide concrete advice about how to go about the practical work of collecting and analysing a range of different texts. A superb introduction to text analysis for beginning students and a useful resource book for more advanced students and researchers." Rodney H. Jones, City University of Hong Kong "This user-friendly book covers a wide range of carefully chosen text types and genres, and takes a modern approach to text analysis. How to Analyse Texts is a fantastic resource for students on undergraduate English Language courses." Mario Saraceni, University of Portsmouth, UK "This is a delightful coursebook marrying the study of a range of modern, multimodal, electronic, creative and ludic texts with the core tools of descriptive linguistics. It shows that multimodal texts can be taken seriously and that English grammar can be fun! The authors have put together a highly useful yet accessible introduction that will serve the next generation of students of media and modern English language very well."Rajend Mesthrie, University of Cape Town, South Africa "How to Analyse Texts is an impresssive introductory textbook for Communication and Humanities students. It covers all aspects of language studies in an accessible and clear way, guiding students step by step in the intricate processes of understanding and interpreting texts. The latest developments in linguistic/semiotic analyses are extremely well presented and illustrated. Ron Carter and Angela Goddard’s toolkit book is, as they themselves say, ‘to be used’ in real situations and practices. I will certainly use it with my own students."Carmen Rosa Caldas-Coulthard, Federal University of Santa Catarina, Brazil and University of Birmingham, UK

The Routledge History of Literature in English
Britain and Ireland"Brought fully up-to-date with a chapter on twenty-first developments, and featuring a number of useful and exciting extras such as an extensive companion website, this third edition of the widely acclaimed Routledge History of Literature in English fully confirms its reputation of solid yet accessible scholarship, and as the indispensable first-hand reference for any serious student of literature in English."Theo D’haen, University of Leuven, Belgium "Immensely accessible, comprehensive and reader-friendly, the 3rd edition of The Routledge History of Literature in English provides interested readers with a thorough exploration of British and Irish literature. With a new added chapter chronicling writings from the twenty-first century, this ideal volume is—to date—unique, unrivalled."Suriyan Panlay, Thammasat University, Thailand "The third edition of this extensive and clearly written volume will be welcome to readers keen to historicize the development of English from Caedmon’s Hymn to the writing of Kazuo Ishiguro. By assessing the reach of English both globally and within the shifting landscape of the British Isles, the authors address questions of dialect, regionalism and nationhood alongside those of genre, form, lexicon and aesthetics. The focus on social and political context in conversation with close readings of specific texts makes this a helpful introduction to the writing and reading of English today."Emma Mason, University of Warwick, UK

Language and Creativity
The Art of Common TalkPraise for the previous edition: "Affords major insights not only into ‘common talk’ but through and beyond this into the nature of language in general." Michael Halliday, University of Sydney, Australia "A major step forward in conversation analysis, and gives desrved recognition to the remarkable linguistic creativity that exists in all of us.' David Crystal, University of Wales, Bangor, UK "A delight to read." Raymond W. Gibbs, Jr., University of California, Santa Cruz, USA "Reading this volume gives the same pleasure as dipping into a reference book on where words come from. It is fascinating and full of background interest ... It is an intriguing study, delving into how human beings use language and how every one of us is creative with it." – ESB "The strength of this book is that Carter uses "real" evidence, transcriptions of conversations from the Cancode corpus, a 5-million-word computerised database that includes recordings from a variety of settings in the UK and Ireland. This broad-ranging approach makes the book a useful consciousness-raising exercise for beginner students." – Jean Aitchison, The Times Higher Education Supplement "The book is a valuable new intervention which should be considered by all applied linguists for both the detail of its analyses and the larger questions it opens up." – BaaL News

From Corpus to Classroom
Language Use and Language TeachingThe book summarises and makes accessible recent work in corpus research, focusing particularly on spoken data. It is based on analysis of corpora such as CANCODE and Cambridge International Corpus and is written with particular reference to the development of corpus-informed pedagogy. It examines the relevance of corpora to materials writers, course designers and language teachers and considers the needs of the learner in relation to authentic data. It shows how the answers to key questions such as 'Is there a basic, everyday vocabulary for English?', 'How should idioms be taught?' and 'What are the most common spoken language chunks?' are best explored by means of a clearer understanding of the workings of language in context.
