Language And Literary Literacy As Components Of Learner’s Functional Literacy

Abstract

The processes of globalization typical to the post-industrial era challenge a new consideration of literacy that satisfies the expectations of an individual and society.

At different times the concept of language literacy meant the ability to read, mastery of spelling and punctuation rules. Such understanding does not fully meet the existing theories of functional literacy and cultural identity.

This kind of activity requires special competences and skills, and a specific type of literacy, which can be defined as literary literacy, the type which the authors consider as an integral part of reading literacy.
