Facultad de Filosofía y Letras K1 Inglés (lengua) - Estudio y enseñanza (Secundaria) K1 Literatura - Estudio y enseñanza AB The use of literature as a teaching resource in EFL classes is not very popular – at leastwhen we talk about English lessons in Secondary Education in Spain (Medina Calzada,2013). However, teaching English through literature is a topic that has been widelystudied and that has been proved to be effective (Brumfit and Carter, 1986; Little andWood, 2005; Alam 2002 in Ali & Ahmed, 2015). In this paper we want to support thisidea and demonstrate that literature not only can be a perfectly adequate resource forteaching a foreign language, but that in fact it can be more beneficial than teaching froma merely linguistic approach. How can we demonstrate this? By revising a strongtheoretical framework and using it to design a proposal for intervention that includesliterature in a specific context – a context provided by the Spanish secondary educationsystem.
