Descriere
Examines scientific discourse using a textographic framework, highlighting tensions between global and local trends in academic writing. This book contests monolingual assumptions informing scientific discourse, calling attention to emerging glocal discourses that make hybrids of the standard globalized and local academic English norms.
Caracteristici
Ascribes the contemporary rhetoric of science as a response to global challenges.
Notă biografică
Professor Carmen Pérez-Llantada is at the Department of English and German Studies, University of Zaragoza, Spain.

Recenzii
Thoughtful [and] well-documented . This book makes a major contribution to our understanding of developments in scientific publication and education, and is useful reading for anyone involved in teaching English at university level . [T]he book is rich, complex and carefully argued.
If the reader still needs convincing that Spain is now a world leader in research into academic English, this book should clinch it. Professor Carmen Perez-Llantada here demonstrates how her major investigative projects offer both theoretical insight and practical value to all those having to cope with a globalizing research world.
Llantada's volume introduces the reader to a fuller understanding of the interrelatedness between science, language(s), culture(s) and the processes of globalization. It does so by combining both text-linguistic and ethnographic analyses. Taking the Spanish scholarly community as an instance, she explores the situational context of scientific discourse production and yields evidence of discursive similarities but also hybridization processes in academic norms across different cultural contexts.'
