دانلود کتاب Proceedings of the 2016 Northeast Asia International Symposium on Linguistics, Literature and Teaching

This book is a collection of the selected papers submitted for presentation at the Northeast Asia International Symposium on Linguistics, Literature and Teaching held in Ningxia University, China, August, 2016. It is also memento of a convivial meeting of hearts and minds, China and the world, all concerned with linguistics, literature and teaching.

The theme of this symposium: “theory into practice in linguistics, literature and teaching in the context
of globalization” implies a dichotomization of an invisible process particularly in such broad research areas.
Perhaps it should be understood dialectically as “theory into practice back to theory...”, “globalization
into localization back to globalization...etc.”. The close interaction between theoretical research and working practice, between linguistics and literature, between global perspectives and local ones would not indeed allow unilateral translations of theory into practice, linguistics into literature, and globalization into localization.

Speaking of dichotomies, the issues raised in this collection appear to fall generally into two groups: those are concerned with basically localized pedagogic and technical practices, and those highlight the globalized theories or contexts. Nevertheless the diversity of subjects is likely to defy any clear categorization and offer challenges and insights in the research of linguistics, literature and teaching.

Despite the diversified ideas and studies in the collection, the publication of the collection, I believe, will help readers build up knowledge and understanding of their relevant subjects on the one hand, and on the other
it will help create a channel through which Chinese scholars will have opportunities to share their ideas and
research findings with scholars and practitioners in other countries. Therefore, the collection is to be highly commended for what it offers to all those interested in linguistics, literature and teaching, whether from a theoretical perspective or pedagogical practice. Above all, I am confident that it will achieve its purpose for what I noted earlier.
