Beschreibung
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"This is a rare and invaluable book that is thoroughly grounded in a particular socio-historical context while also offering a compelling resolution to a problem that is both current and urgent: why and how to teach literature in a general education curriculum. It is essential reading for those invested in the teaching of literature." (Cristina Vischer Bruns, author of Why Literature? The Value of Literary Reading and What It Means for Teaching)
"The arguments in this book will echo far beyond the walls of French literary pedagogy. Guiney draws on reception theory and cultural studies, and makes a strong case for including economic theory in a new, robust defense of the teaching of literature and the humanities. His book is a must read for anyone attempting to defend a liberal arts education today." (Dana Lindaman, Associate Professor of French Studies, University of Minnesota Duluth, USA)
"This book offers a wide-ranging, cogent analysis of the crisis of French literary pedagogy. Guiney's illuminating study sheds light on the urgent need to reinvent the literary pedagogy practiced in French high schools today in order to address its students' experiences and concerns." (Ralph Albanese, Professor of French, University of Memphis, USA)
