Repetition and learning by heart: an aspect of intimate discourse, and its implications

Guy Cook

Senior Lecturer in Applied Linguistics for TESOL at the London University Institute of Education. He has worked as a teacher of English in England, Egypt, Italy, and the former Soviet Union, and as a lecturer at Moscow State University and the University of Leeds. His interests include literature teaching, discourse analysis, media studies, and translation theory, and his publications include Discourse (OUP 1989), The Discourse of Advertising (Routledge 1992), and Literature, Discourse, and Cognitive Change (OUP, forthcoming).

The purpose of this paper is to speculate on the relevance to TESOL of intimate discourse, a neglected, undervalued, but important type of discourse, and suggest ways in which it might alter our ideas of appropriate discourse and discourse activities in the classroom.
