摘要：The impact of context on the way language is used to get things done is a core concern of researchers and teachers working in a range of fields, particularly applied linguistics,discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, educational linguistics, and communication studies. The diversity of these endeavours is evident in Grammar and context: An advanced resourcebook, which focuses on the ways in which grammatical choices influence and are influenced by context. Written primarily for upper level undergraduate students and postgraduates, the text explores the relationship between grammar and context of interaction from a range of theoretical perspectives and socio-cultural, global, and pedagogic contexts. It also examines different dimensions of context. Part of Routledge’s AppliedLinguistic Resource Book series, Grammar and context contains three main sections: Introduction, which establishes key terms and concepts as well as providing some tools for grammatical analysis; Extension, which builds on the introductory section byproviding excerpts from influential readings and commentary designed to engage the reader to evaluate the theories, findings, and perspectives presented in the readings; andExploration, the most ‘hands-on’ section of the text, which encourages readers to apply the knowledge gained in the first two sections by analysing selected data and developingresearch directions. All sections include tasks designed to prompt discussion and further exploration as well as a summary of the main points. In the final section, Exploration,the tasks include a feedback component, as these tasks involve grammatical analysis rather than points for discussion and reflection.
