Produktbeschreibung
This book explores the validity of Kaplan's claims that thought patterns are cultural and language-specific and that the writing problems of advanced EFL students are mainly attributable to their L1 rhetorical interference. The original contribution of this book to our knowledge is that the research designs deployed in it are engineered bearing in mind some of the major theoretical issues underlying early contrastive rhetoric studies. The results reveal no significant differences in the rhetorical performance of all the study participants regardless of their language or cultural background. This implies, as a finding of the study, that 1) EL1 rhetorical performance does not seem to be of significantly any better quality than that of Moroccan Advanced EFL writers; 2) The rhetorical patterns of English persuasive writing investigated are not significantly more problematic for the Moroccan Advanced EFL writers than for their native English speakers' counterparts.
