CRESCENDO! is a comprehensive intermediate Italian program that promotes the development of all four skills, encourages the acquisition of vocabulary, and provides a full review and expansion of Italian grammar-all within a rich cultural framework. Sophisticated, respected and functionally organized, CRESCENDO! emphasizes learning language in context through extensive use of authentic materials, including short stories by well-known modern Italian authors. In each thematically organized chapter, the vocabulary, situations, culturally relevant authentic readings, grammar structures and exercises are all correlated to reinforce the topics and structures featured and to give students the tools they need to express their thoughts and ideas on the themes treated.

A comprehensive intermediate Italian language course, designed to build proficiency in all four language skills - listening, reading, speaking and writing - and to expand students' cultural knowledge of contemporary Italy. The text focuses on using the language in meaningful contexts rather than merely memorising abstract concepts. Grammar and vocabulary are taught throughout the book for their communicative value and not as ends in themselves. The chapters are organized thematically, and cover modern subjects representing Italian life - including family, childhood and youth, future perspectives, traditions, vacations, cities and provinces, history, government, economy, social questions, mass media and publicity.
"The thematic organization of the book that makes of grammar a means to an end and not just an end in itself clearly shows that the authors of the book are responding to a big need in the field of foreign language teachinga]"

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
