REVIEWING THE DISCOURSE ON (POTENTIAL) "ENEMIES OF STANDARD ENGLISH"
Full text linkThis essay argues that Standard English is one among the varieties of English. Although speaking Standard English, as is the case with speaking other languages or varieties claimed to be the standard, might allow the speakers to gain particular privileges, it should not be readily surmised that this variety is more quality than the rest; difference does not necessarily mean difference in quality. As such, Honey's propagation that Standard English is more quality thus warrants more attention should be read on guard. This essay outlines whom Honey refers to as the enemies of Standard English. Subsequent to the outline, the essay presents points disclosing Honey's shaky argument. Critical presentation, against the backdrop of Honey's argumentation, of issues about nonnative speakers of English (if they are parties having the potential to corrupt English) will conclude the article

EXAMINING RESEARCH SPACES IN DOCTORAL PROSPECTUSES
Full text linkGenre analyses and contrastive rhetoric studies have dealt with quite a number of genres of writing. However, genre analysts and contrastive rhetoric researchers have not carried out adequate analyses of doctoral prospectuses. This paper will, subsequently, address this issue by analyzing a genre of texts of doctoral prospectuses. The analysis will be focused on the sub-genre of "Background of the Study" of the prospectuses. Limitations of accessibility, however, have led this study to only focus on analyzing fourteen doctoral prospectuses written in English by Indonesian students of EFL accessible from the Graduate Program, State University of Malang, Indonesia. This situation suggests that the present study is preliminary. Preliminary, notwithstanding, the study will contribute to filling the gap of the underresearched issue of doctoral studies in Indonesia, particularly, those pertinent to the area of ELT. The analysis shows a tendency that the texts of Background of the Study do not show research spaces. Relevant to this, the article provides an interpretive explanation of the possible factors attributable tothis issue

CURRICULUM VITAE: A DISCOURSE OF CELEBRATION WITH NARCISSISTIC ALLUSIONS
Full text linkThe present study, a part of a larger project, deals with the under-researched (sub) genre of curriculum vitae (CV) of theses written in English by Indonesian students of English as a foreign language (EFL). The corpus was composed of CV of 40 theses obtainable from the Graduate Library, Graduate Program, Universitas Negeri Malang (State University of Malang), Indonesia. In a categorical structure, the CVs exhibit four main issues: personal information about age and familial origin, academic information pertaining to educational backgrounds, work information, and another piece of personal information, i.e., family. Central to the findings is that the CVs allude to the notion of celebration with narcissistic expressions
RHETORICAL ODYSSEY AND TRAJECTORIES: A PERSONAL REFLECTION
Full text linkThe present paper outlines a self introspective undertaking germane to the issue of rhetorical awareness. This issue is imbricated in the realm of academic writing in English (particularly, English as a foreign language). As a self retrospective endeavor, the paper starts with some personal account undergirding the writing of the present paper. Some self delineation teasing out the context for the rhetorical awareness will also be presented. Some attempts to read the main issue raised in the paper against the backdrop of the wider context (within the gamut of ELT) will conclude the paper
