Description

The status of "standard English" has featured in linguistic, educational and cultural debates over decades. This second edition of Tony Crowley's historical analysis and account of the complex and sometimes polarised arguments driving the debate brings readers up-to-date, and ranges from the 1830s to Conservative education policies in the 1990s and on to the implications of the National Curriculum for English language teaching in schools. Students and researchers in literacy, the history of English language, cultural theory, and English language education should find this treatment comprehensive, carefully researched and lively reading.
