Literature & Lives: A Response-Based, Cultural Studies Approach to Teaching English
Author(s): Allen Carey-Webb
Telling stories from lively secondary and college English classrooms, Literature and Lives explores the new possibilities for teaching and learning generated by bringing together reader-response and cultural-studies approaches. Carey-Webb connects Shakespeare, Dickens, Twain, and other canonical figures to multicultural writers, popular culture, film, testimonial, politics, history, and issues relevant to contemporary youth. Each chapter contains brief explications of literary scholarship and theory, and each is followed by extensive annotated bibliographies of multicultural literature, approachable scholarship and theory, and relevant Internet sites.
