Looks at the work of fifteen authors who were born in India, Pakistan, or Sri Lanka, and whose work is based at least partly there, including R.K. Narayan, Salman Rushdie, and Arundhati Roy.
The passages about Pakistan foreshadow the portrait of that nation he would
create in his next novel. Shame (1983) is a scarifying satire of the history of
Pakistan. It is a much shorter novel than Midnight's Children, and it is tempting to
recommend beginners to start with it; yet it lacks much of the charm and humor of
his earlier novel. If Rushdie has a love/hate relationship with India, his feelings
toward Pakistan are much more unambiguous. Rushdie's personal animosity to
the country's ...

Chapter 3 English Phonology, Phonotactics, and Suprasegmentals Chapter
Preview This chapter begins with a discussion of the notions of the phoneme (
distinctive sound) and allophone (predictable variant). A number of phonemic
rules for specific English phonemes and their allophones are stated. The chapter
then treats the topic of phonological rules, which account generally for allophonic
variation in English. This is followed by a description of the constraints on

This text is for advanced undergraduate and graduate students interested in contemporary English, especially those whose primary area of interest is English as a second language, primary or secondary-school education, English stylistics, theoretical and applied linguistics, or speech pathology. The emphasis is on empirical facts of English rather than any particular theory of linguistics; the text does not assume any background in language or linguistics. In this newly revised edition numerous example sentences are taken from the Corpus of Contemporary American English. A full glossary of key terms, an additional chapter on pedagogy and new sections on cognitive semantics and politeness have been added. Other changes include: completely updated print references; web links to sites of special interest and relevance; and a revised, reader-friendly layout. A companion website that includes a complete workbook with self-testing exercises and a comprehensive list of web links accompanies the book. The website can be found at the following address: http: //dx.doi.org/10.1075/z.156.workbook Students completing the text and workbook will acquire: a knowledge of the sound system of contemporary English; an understanding of the formation of English words; a comprehension of the structure of both simple and complex sentence in English; a recognition of complexities in the expression of meaning; an understanding of the context and function of use upon the structure of the language; and an appreciation of the importance of linguistic knowledge to the teaching of English to first and second-language learners.

A number of phonemic rules for specific English phonemes and their allophones

combinations in English. The chapter then turns to the features of stress and
intonation in English, features which extend over more than one sound. The
characteristics of stress ...
