In a readable and often-amusing narrative, Gerald Graff shows that the heated conflicts of our recent culture wars echo - and often recycle - controversies over how literature should be taught that began more than a century ago. Updated with a new preface by the author that addresses many of the provocative arguments raised by its initial publication, "Professing Literature" remains an essential history of literary pedagogy and a critical classic.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 227mmItem Length: 153mmItem Width: 19mmItem Weight: 502gAuthor: Gerald GraffGenre: Literary CriticismTopic: Society & Culture, Children's Learning & Education, HistoryRelease Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
