Critical Thinking in Academic Writing by Shi PU
English | 2021 | ISBN: 1032038829 | 184 pages | PDF | 20 MB
The book inquires into critical thinking through a cultural approach. Based on an ethnographic study, it compares Chinese postgraduate students' conceptualisations and applications of critical thinking in three different settings in China and the UK. From an insider's perspective, it analyses the intricate interplay of multiple cultural and individual factors that conditions students' critical thinking development as they learn to write an academic thesis and to manage postgraduate learning. The book offers insights into the nature of problems that Chinese students encounter with critical thinking and envisions possibilities for the ideas for critical thinking to have a transformative power in an intercultural space.

Brexit and Literature: Critical and Cultural Responses By Robert Eaglestone (editor)
2018 | 238 Pages | ISBN: 0815376685 | PDF | 2 MB
Brexit is a political, economic and administrative event: and it is a cultural one, too. In Brexit and Literature, Robert Eaglestone brings together a diverse range of literary scholars, writers and poets to respond to this aspect of Brexit. The discipline of 'English', as the very name suggests, is concerned with cultural and national identity: literary studies has always addressed ideas of nationalism and the wider political process. With the ramifications of Brexit expected to last for decades to come, Brexit and Literature offers the first academic study of its impact on and through the humanities. Including a preface from Baroness Young of Hornsey, Brexit and Literature is a bold and unapologetic volume, focusing on the immediate effects of the divisive referendum while meditating on its long-term impact.
