Abstract:

New Directions in Second Language Pragmatics brings together varying
perspectives in second language (L2) pragmatics to show both historical
developments in the field, while also looking towards the future, including
theoretical, empirical, and implementation perspectives. This volume is
divided in four sections: teaching and learning speech acts, assessing
pragmatic competence, analyzing discourses in digital contexts, and current
issues in L2 pragmatics. The chapters focus on various aspects related to the
learning, teaching, and assessing of L2 pragmatics and cover a range of
learning environments. The authors address current topics in L2 pragmatics
such as: speech acts from a discursive perspective; pragmatics instruction in
the foreign language classroom and during study abroad; assessment of
pragmatic competence; research methods used to collect pragmatics data;
pragmatics in computer-mediated contexts; the role of implicit and explicit
knowledge; discourse markers as a resource for interaction; and the framework
of translingual practice. Taken together, the chapters in this volume
foreground innovations and new directions in the field of L2 pragmatics while,
at the same time, ground their work in the existing literature. Consequently,
this volume both highlights where the field of L2 pragmatics has been and
offers cutting-edge insights into where it is going in the future.
