Currently looking at Peter Clark's "50 Writing Tools".<br /><br />Ric: Theory of Reading and Theory of Writing seem to be completely seperate subjects. They shouldn't be, but in universities they are.<br /><br />About a decade ago, I knew some students from Spain and Germany who were studying English Literature at english university. They were <i>not</i> impressed.<br /><br />Apparantly the "advanced" theories of literature (and linguistics) taught to students at 18 in England were the same "basic" ideas being taught in Europe to students at 12.<br /><br />The Brian: The strange thing is, in the town 10 miles north, the economy's booming and there's jobs for everyone. Or so it seems.<br /><br />So why don't I move there? Because I can't afford to. Property prices and rent rates are skyrocketing there too.<br /><br />Not that I can afford to live here really. Britain now seems to be full of people over 25 living with their parents because, although there's endless new houses and aparartments being built, half of them remain unoccupied because <i>no one can afford to live in them</i>.Kapitanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14647896216499813443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7805716.post-78041953737114498422006-12-15T12:16:00.000+00:002006-12-15T12:16:00.000+00:00The job market here is crap as well.
