The TESOL Quarterlypublishes brief commentaries on aspects of English language teaching. For this issue, we asked two educators to discuss the following question: What role can literature play in the ESL classroom? Tyger! Tyger! burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? from “The Tyger,” by William Blake (Heaney & Hughes, 1982)
