Literature and Communication

Dennis F. Bratchell

Abstract

Frequent attention is drawn to the decline in the standards of written English. High school examinations are changing to meet a new situation. Attempts are being made to find a unified approach to all aspects of English study. Literary studies figure prominently in the education of teachers of English. New critical approaches bring linguistic and literary studies together. Form and content are seen as combined in structure. Basic critical approaches can be applied to a wide range of texts. This is significant for the teaching and learning of communication skills in English.
