The studies described in the five chapters of the book explore the spaces of convergence of identity, culture and literature with students and teachers in high school contexts and undergraduates in university settings. In each study, readers are responding to texts that are culturally distant from their own literary and experiential histories. An objective of each study was to consider the nature of the cultural locations of the reader and the text, and the interstitial spaces between these locations. The book interrogates readers’ attempts to negotiate cultural difference in literary contexts and questions how this negotiation requires reading practices traditionally ignored in North American classrooms. The book will offer educators at the secondary and post-secondary levels rich material to draw upon for a rethinking of the school curriculum and will be of interest to scholars of postcolonial and literary studies. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 English literature|xMinority authors|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85043867|xStudy and teaching (Secondary)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2001009038 650 0 Postcolonialism in literature|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002010213|xStudy and teaching (Secondary)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2001009038 650 7 English literature|xMinority authors.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/912123 650 7 Postcolonialism in literature.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1073035 653 4 Education. 653 4 Literacy. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Mangat, Jyoti.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2012050972 776 08 |iPrint version:|aJohnston, Ingrid, 1946-|tReading practices, postcolonial literature, and cultural mediation in the classroom.|dRotterdam ; Boston : Sense, ©2012 |z9789460917035|w(OCoLC)778781225 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=478120|zOnline eBook.
