Writing Across Culture: An Introduction to Study Abroad and the Writing Process

 

Author:Kenneth Wagner, Tony Magistrale

Publisher:New York: Peter Lang, 2019

Overview:

This book is about culture shock and the writing process. The purpose of Writing Across Culture is to aid the student in documenting and analyzing the connection in between writing and the challenge of living in a foreign culture. If culture can be broadly defined as the unwritten rules of every-day life, one effective method for learning these rules is to write about them as they are discovered. In this way, it is possible to see writing as a tool for cultural inquiry and comprehension, and, hence, an antidote for culture shock.
