No. 2 (2023): Teaching Reading and Literature

We are pleased to present the fifth issue of the journal DiSlaw. It is dedicated to teaching reading and literature and accordingly zooms in on the possible uses of literary texts in foreign language teaching. In doing so, we explore three fundamental questions: What is literature? What can it be used for in the classroom? And: How can this be done? These questions help us to approach the triad of objectives, content and methods that determines the didactic framework of teaching (cf. e.g. Heimann et al., 1965; Klingberg, 1995, 41).
