Summary:
This thesis presents an overview of the paths taken by the proponents of contrastive analysis and error analysis, addressing specific positions held and studies done in these two areas of linguistics. A brief historical survey of linguistics, learning theories, and teaching strategies is given, dating from pre-structuralism through to poststructuralism. Following a discussion of contrastive analysis and its influence on the development of error analysis, the merits of interlanguage are discussed for the purpose of demonstrating its very vital contributions to the field of second-language learning.
