Language-Based Approach
This model helps students enhance their
knowledge of familiar grammar, lexical, and
discourse categories, meaningful interpretations
in understanding a text.

Language-Based Approach
1. METHODOLOGICAL ASSUMPTIONS
.Studying the language of the literary text will
help to integrate the language and literature
syllabuses more closely.
.Detailed analysis of the language of the literary
text will help students to make meaningful
interpretations or informed evaluations of it.

Language-Based Approach
2. SELECTION AND ORGANISATION OF MATERIAL
Material is chosen for the way it illustrates
certain stylistic features of the language but also
for its literary merit.

Stylistic Approach
A Stylistics approach teaches students how to
look for and interpret stylistic dimensions of a
text.
The stylistic approach incorporates a close
reading of its literature contrary to the
traditional ways of memorization and
reproduction.

Literature as content; how


far to go?
This approach looks at the content of the
literary piece. It intends for the student to
analyze and interpret the literary piece.
It uses the social, political and, historical
background of the text.

Literature For Personal Enrichment;


Involving Students
This model involves students personal, intellectual, and
emotional experiences. Students are encouraged to
express their feelings and opinions and to make
connections between their own personal and cultural
experiences and those expressed in the text.
There are two main aspects in the activity used :
1. Interpret text /Literary competence/understanding the
text
2. deliver their opinion or feeling after reading the literature

The role of metalanguage


Literature means that the art of language. So, we need to use metalanguage
in this teaching learning activity to make the written text or the speech will
be more interesting for the students as the reader or the audience.

The role of metalanguage


In literary metalanguage, there are some terminology that the
teachers and the students should be mastered. They are:

1. Metaphor
2. Simile
3. Personification
4. Paradox
5. Oxymoron
6. Metonymy
7. Synecdoche
8. Apostrophe
9. Alliteration
10.assonance

Conclusion
Literature plays an important role in the English
programs of many non-English speaking Countries.
There are several approaches which are integrated to
conduct some skills such as writing, speaking, and
reading in teaching literature. The approaches aim to
make students interest to read the literature. So, to get
the objectives of teaching literature, the teacher should
select the appropriate approaches and materials based
on the students need.
