‘This book provides a readable, entertaining and informative introduction to issues in
language change. The examples and exercises require little metalinguistic knowledge,
introducing linguistic concepts and terminology gradually. The texts and exercises are
well-chosen and will stimulate discussion.’
Joan Beal, University of Sheffield , UK.
‘An excellent resource for A Level Language. It opens up the field, going beyond
narrow definitions of language change and offering lively textual examples and
commentaries to support students’ learning.’
Barbara Bleiman, Advisory Teacher at The English and Media Centre , UK.
The INTERTEXT series has been specifically designed to meet the needs of contem-
porary English Language Studies. Working with Texts: A core introduction to language
analysis (second edition, 2001) is the foundation text, which is complemented by a
range of ‘satellite’ titles. These provide students with hands-on practical experience
of textual analysis through special topics, and can be used individually or in conjunc-
tion with Working with Texts .

The Intertext series
The Routledge INTERTEXT series aims to develop readers’ understanding of
how texts work. It does this by showing some of the designs and patterns
in the language from which they are made, by placing texts within the
contexts in which they occur, and by exploring relationships between them.
The series consists of a foundation text, Working with Texts: A core intro-
duction to language analysis , which looks at language aspects essential for the
analysis of texts, and a range of satellite texts. These apply aspects of
language to a particular topic area in more detail. They complement the core
text and can also be used alone, providing the user has the foundation skills
furnished by the core text.
Benefits of using this series:
e Multi-disciplinary – provides a foundation for the analysis of texts,
supporting students who want to achieve a detailed focus on language.
e Accessible – no previous knowledge of language analysis is assumed,
just an interest in language use.
e Student-friendly – contains activities relating to texts studied, com-
mentaries after activities, highlighted key terms, suggestions for further
reading and an index of terms.
e Interactive – offers a range of task-based activities for both class use
and self-study.
e Tried and tested – written by a team of respected teachers and prac-
titioners whose ideas and activities have been trialled independently.
