Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
'World Englishes' has emerged as a new paradigm in the description of English. But what exactly does the paradigm involve? The various models which have been suggested are critically reviewed in the set textbook. As data for testing the issues involved, we will make use of various national components of the International Corpus of English. Each student adopt a national variety and becomes spokesperson in discussions, topic after topic. A crucial question will be how British Isles Englishes (English English, scottish English, Irish English, welsh English) fit in to the World Englishes paradigm. (There will regular exercises involving analysis. The seminar will culminate in an assignment in which a particular topic or topics using ICE data will be analysed in the context of some aspect of the 'World Englsihes' paradigm
