Abstract

The present paper is an attempt to shed light on the controversial and still debatable issue of English language culture and civilization teaching in the academic settings of the course entitled "Language Culture and Civilization". It aims at providing a conclusive answer to the claim that such knowledge is prerequisite to the course content. It will be dedicated for the explanation of the concepts of language, culture and civilization. We assume that, exploring each of them to reveal the true essence, significance and implications each concept carries, is a requirement. Our intention, by bringing together several contributions from a number of anthropologists and sociologists, is to provide a clear elucidation of the denotation of each concept, help meet the revival of interest among students, teachers and researchers in the cultural contents of language teaching and advocate a culture-oriented teaching- learning of the "Language Culture and Civilization" course in our universities.
