"This book is thought-provoking in that it foregrounds the long-present but under-theorised domain in language learning and teaching and provides a useful framework for understanding different theoretical stances or assumptions about emotions in English language learning and teaching." Zuocheng Zhang & Yuxia Li, Australian Review of Applied Linguistics "By breaking importantnew ground in this area for not just critical English language researchers and teachers, but also SLA researchers to explore beyond traditional cognitive conceptualizations of emotions, Benesch's book is an invaluable and major contribution to the field." -- Christian W. Chun, City University of Hong Kong, Applied Linguistics "This is a publication no one involved in education and specifically in teaching English as a second language should overlook." --TESOL Quarterly "Considering Emotions in Critical English Language Teachingoffers a set of tools for researchers and practitioners to reanalyze their practice in a way that gives emotion the attention it necessitates. This new critical lens expands our ability to understand emotion and should be taken up as a tenet of classrooms oriented toward producing a more socially equitable learning space." --Linguistics and Education STRONG>TESOL Quarterly "Considering Emotions in Critical English Language Teachingoffers a set of tools for researchers and practitioners to reanalyze their practice in a way that gives emotion the attention it necessitates.
