Abstract (english)
This study focuses on American academic fiction, with special emphasis on increasing the students’ vocabulary as well as knowledge and understanding of the American culture. Although American academic fiction has enjoyed immense popularity in the last few decades, it is still relatively unknown and unexplored within the Croatian context. The present study aims to increase both the Croatian readers’ awareness of this genre and show that the American academic novel offers foreign learners of English not only detailed insight into the American higher education system and the problems faced by the American academic community, but also contributes to a better understanding of the diversity of American culture and society. Furthermore, the academic novel is a valuable source of campus words and phrases and as such is effective in making students fluent in social and academic interactions.
Abstract (croatian)
Predmetno je područje ove studije američki akademski roman, s posebnim naglaskom na istraživanju mogućnosti usvajanja specifičnoga akademskog vokabulara (riječi i fraza koje se koriste u sveučilišnoj sredini), te razvijanju sposobnosti za kritičko mišljenje o aktualnim temama iz područja visokoga obrazovanja, kao i američke kulture u cjelini. Iako je američki akademski roman u posljednjih nekoliko desetljeća stekao veliku popularnost na engleskom govornom području, još je uvijek relativno nepoznat i neistražen žanr među hrvatskim čitateljima. Ova studija ima za cilj povećati svijest čitatelja o tom žanru i pokazati da američki akademski roman nudi onima koji uče engleski kao strani jezik ne samo detaljan uvid u američki obrazovni sustav i probleme s kojima se suočava američka akademska zajednica, već i da pridonosi boljem razumijevanju specifičnosti američke kulture i društva. Nadalje, akademski je roman vrijedan izvor akademskoga vokabulara, a kao takav vrlo koristan za razvijanje osobne komunikacijske i interkulturalne kompetencije.
