Summary:"Contrastive Rhetoric is the study of how a person's first language and culture influence the acquisition of another language; it encourages inquiry into various levels of discourse and text, examining the influence of first-language conventions and rhetorical structures on the use of the second. This fascinating volume presents a comprehensive view of the research in the field by bringing together essays by leading scholars from Cyprus, Hong Kong, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Turkey, the United Kingdom; and the United States. Divided into four sections - on writing and translation, diglossia, second language acquisition, and pragmatics - this collection will be an invaluable resource for language teachers and students of applied linguistics alike, and for anyone interested in second language acquisition."--Jacket.
