Abstract
The main aim of the study is to explore and analyze how pragmatic content is portrayed in the textbooks targeted at Teaching Spanish L2 (TSL2). The analysis aims at answering the following questions:
1) How much pragmatic information, both implicit and explicit, is included in recently published TSL2 textbooks?
2) Which specific pragmatic aspects are covered?
3) Is the amount and type of pragmatic information given similar weighting at each linguistic proficiency level?
The ultimate outcome of the research and this chapter is twofold: first, the intention is to ascertain how much pragmatic related content is included in the textbooks of Spanish L2; the second is to create an awareness of the need to include pragmatic related information when designing teaching materials.
