This text explores the roots of English and shows how it has come to exist in its current form. Readers develop a socio-linguistic understanding of English and at the same time develop an appreciation of the rich and varied heritage of English literature. The author identifies English as an essentially adaptable form which depends on the context of usage. The different forms of English used in various contexts - media, advertising, literature - are examined.
