Descripción

This handbook is designed for students and teachers of English Studies who wish to improve their historical, geographical and cultural knowledge, vocabulary and expressions in these areas. Using an exercise-based approach to teaching and learning English as a second language, this volume presents activities that enable students to handle and gather historical and cultural information from a wide range of materials and perspectives, such as historical documents, literary and cultural texts, films, photographs and maps. This varied selection will provide a comprehensive overview of the field and help students to relate key historical, geographical and cultural issues to topics that will be covered in other literary or linguistic subjects throughout the English Studies degree.
