Posted on mayo 20, 2016mayo 20, 2016 by Pilar González Llerena

Michael Kelly Abstract This article examines issues involved in developing a multilingual approach to language teaching within higher education.

English as a lingua franca in Europe: A mismatch between policy and practice

Posted on mayo 20, 2016 by Pilar González Llerena

Alessia Cogo, Jennifer Jenkins Abstract In this article, we argue that the European Union, in which English has over the past couple of decades become the de facto lingua franca, should acknowledge the usefulness of English in this role, and that instead of ignoring what is happening in practice, should build English into EU language policy.

Posted on mayo 18, 2016mayo 18, 2016 by Pilar González Llerena

Religion and language in post–Soviet Russia / Brian P. Bennett. If it is not an oxymoron, a kind of quotidian mysticism infonns ecclesiastical literature on Church Slavonic. The notion of some kind of”secret” or “mystery” hidden within the script is found frequently in catechetical materials. According to one abecedarium, the letters of the Slavonic alphabet are not mere neutral tools; rather, their names and fonns convey infonnation about the structure of the universe (Shumskikh…
