The Cultural Component of Language Teaching.

Kramsch, Claire

Language, Culture and Curriculum, v8 n2 p83-92 1995

This article proposes a theoretical framework for teaching culture through language that suspends the traditional dichotomy between the universal and the particular in language teaching and embraces the particular as a platform for dialogue and as a common struggle to realign differences.
