Who has more scope of profession, Ralph Ellison or Erich Fromm?
Ralph Ellison Ralph Waldo Ellison (March 1, 1913 – April 16, 1994) was an American novelist, literary critic, and scholar. Ellison is best known for his novel "Invisible Man", which won the National Book Award in 1953. He also wrote "Shadow and Act" (1964), a collection of political, social and critical essays, and "Going to the Territory" (1986). For "The New York Times", the best of these essays in addition to the novel put him "among the gods of America's literary Parnassus." A posthumous novel, "Juneteenth", was published after being assembled from voluminous notes he left after his death.
Wolfgang Butzkamm Wolfgang Butzkamm (born 11 November 1938) is Professor Emeritus of English as a Foreign Language at Aachen University, Germany. He is credited with the development of a principled and systematic approach to the role of the mother tongue in foreign language teaching which radically differs from a target-language-only philosophy prevailing in many countries. For him, traditional monolingualism is an instance of a more general naturalistic fallacy which is committed when foreign language teaching is modelled after the natural acquisition of a first language (L1), as in the direct method (education) which was also called the natural method.
