内容提要 本书是对世界英语变体的元学科研究,主要从该学科的科学性出发,从研究构架、研究方法和研究对象等层面探讨了其研究范式的建立问题。作者的主要观点是:世界英语变体研究应该加强语言领域的研究,研究对象应该深入到篇章层面;研究方法应该借鉴比较修辞学等应用语言学学科的统计和实证方法。该书的创新之处之一在于论证了 “发展圈”英语的规范(norms)在语篇层面更多地依赖于本地语的语篇模式。 目录 Preface 0 Introduction 0.1 Statement of the Problem 0.2 Theoretical Underpinnings 0.3 Literature Review 0.4 Preview of the Book1 Contrastive Rhetoric 1.1 Conlrastive Rhetoric: Where Culture Meets Rhetoric 1.2 Major Approaches in CR Research 1.3 L2 Discourse: Where Chinese Encounter Aristotle 2 World Englishes 2.1 The Global Spread of English: A Mixed Blessing 2.2 World Englishes Studies 2.3 Major Approaches in WEs Research3 World Englishes as a Discipline 3.1 Academic Status of World Englishes 3.2 Science or 'Properly Constructed Academic Discipline' 3.3 Kuhn's Concept of Paradigm 3.4 Matsuda's Internal Metadisciplinary Inquiry 3.5 Implications from CR4 World Englishes: A Discoursal Perspective 4.1 The Linguistic Tradition of Sentence Grammar 4.2 The Sacred Cow of Sentence Grammar in WEs " 4.3 Case Study I: English as a Chinese Language5 World Englishes: A Linguistic Typology 5.1 Modeling World Englishes 5.2 A Linguistic Typology of World Englishes 5.3 ESL and EFL, Or L2? 5.4 Interlanguage assumption 5.5 Case Study II: Is English an Asian Language?6 World Englishes: Methodological Considerations 6.1 Quantitative and Qualitative Paradigms 6.2 Methodological Tradition in Writing Research 6.3 Methodological Tradition in CR Research 6.4 Traditional WEs Methodology 6.5 Mixed Methods in WEs Research 6.6 Chinese Writing Abstracts in English7 Conclusions and Further ResearchBibliography 作者介绍 姜亚军,教授,博士。研究领域涉及语篇分析、翻译学、辞典学、第二语言写作和英语国际化研究。目前已在English Today、Speaking English 、《外语教学与研究》、《现代外语》和《辞书研究》等发表论文五十余篇。为World Englishes的特约审稿人。主编和参编《外语教学与研究论 序言
