New Approaches to Literature for Language Learning
This book unpacks recent changes in the landscape of literature and language teaching, and aims to find new explanations for the altered relationships between readers and writers, the democratisation of authorship, and the emergence of new ways of using language. By examining topics as various as literature and technology, multimodality, and new Englishes, the authors take a fresh look at the use of literature as a tool in the teaching of English to second-language speakers. More than simply a way of teaching aesthetic and ethical values and rhetorical skills, they argue that literature can also be used to help students to critically evaluate assumptions about society, culture and power which underpin the production and reception of texts. The book relates theories of language acquisition and literary criticism to examples of literary texts from a wide range of global literature in English, and discusses new ways of engaging with it, such as transmedia story telling, book blogs and slam poetry. It will be of interest to language teachers and teacher trainers, and to students and scholars of applied linguistics, TESOL, and digital literacies.

This anthology brings together a riveting collection of science fiction and horror tales, each set in a different place and time, inviting readers to explore the unknown. In 'Destination Infinity,' astronauts on a mission around the Alpha Centauri system return to Earth 150 years later than planned, only to find a totalitarian regime has seized control of a high-tech society with unsettling visions for communal life. 'An Encounter With Destiny' follows the survivors of a plane crash stranded on a remote Pacific island during a nuclear war as they confront the haunting possibility that they might be the last people on Earth. Among them is a mysterious scientist, whose presence stirs both hope and unease. In 'The German Factor or The Recreation Machine,' a man invents a device that turns photographs into reality. But as he falls in with a reneged army bent on rebellion, his invention is weaponized, transforming this tale into a thrilling war story. The horror story 'Even the Wicked for the Day of Evil' follows a Haitian immigrant who, after his French roommate dies in police custody, turns to voodoo for revenge. In 'The Next Star Past Luyten 725-34,' the first astronauts on a mission of interstellar colonization stumble upon colonies already established by previous Earth expeditions. The science fiction tale 'A Return to Huntington Grounds' imagines a near future where a baseball team travels back in time, altering the course of their sport forever. Finally, in a 'Deadland,' a lonely man driven by despair reaches for the occult to escape his misery, gaining unimaginable power to retaliate against everyone who stands in his way. This collection offers a journey across the strange and the terrifying, where the boundaries of reality, ambition, and revenge are pushed to their limits.
