Illustrated by an empirical study of English as a Foreign Language reading in Argentina, this book argues for a different approach to the theoretical rationales and methodological designs typically used to investigate cultural understanding in reading, in particular foreign language reading. It presents an alternative approach which is more authentic in its methods, more educational in its purposes, and more supportive of international understanding as an aim of language teaching in general and English language teaching in particular.

Melina Porto is Professor of English Language at Universidad Nacional de La Plata, Argentina and Researcher at Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas (CONICET), Argentina.
