DESCRIPTION OF PURPOSE AND CONTENTS

The purpose of this edited collection of papers by different authors is to explore links between the Russian literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin's ideas and second or foreign language learning. While Bakhtin has traditionally been seen as a literary critic, chapters in this book collect the ideas of scholars that see how Bakhtinian genres and rhetorical theory can be relevant and applied to second and foreign language education. The book addresses a variety of formal and informal educational contexts including elementary and university-level second or foreign language classrooms.
