Abstract

This article introduces a free linguistic tool (developed in a collaborative project between University of Birmingham and the University of Nottingham and funded by an Arts and Humanities Research Council grant reference AH/P504634/1), with suggestions for how it can be used in English classes to integrate the study of language and literature.

It is commonplace for English teachers to come from a literature background (Myhill and Watson, 2014) and there is a shortage of applicants to the profession from a linguistics background (Blake and Shortis, 2010; Clark and Macrae, 2014). At the same time, specifications like the AQA English language and literature A-level (AQA, 2018) now look for both integrated linguistic and literary study, and exploration of connections across texts, informed by linguistic and literary concepts.
