The current Island Prize family tree. It's growing ...

Glass Tower: 'a powerful, beautiful story'
Sand Roses: 'an extraordinarily immersive narrative'
A Mouth Full of Salt: 'Insightful, elegant and compelling'

“Your understanding of the components of language determines to a large extent how you teach a language.” —H. Douglas Brown, Principles of Language Learning and Teaching

The table outlines 8 parts of a composite definition of language and an interesting thought exercise accompanies—
—Select only one of the eight parts of the definition of language to place your emphasis on and imagine how this emphasis influences your engagement with language as a concept.
