Opis

De/constructing Literacies: Considerations for Engagement reviews and defines the concept of engagement in literacy studies from different epistemologies.

Recenzje

"De/constructing Literacies moves us closer to holistic understandings of literacy and learning by presenting literacies as both embodied and distributed, emergent and sedimented, affective and social. Weaving together theoretical strands from phenomenological hermeneutics and posthumanism, Lemieux pushes central conversations in the field forward by making sure the contributions of key deconstructionists, namely Barthes, Ricoeur and Gadamer, are not left behind. The book's careful empirical groundedness undergirds and lends support to its remarkable theoretical contributions."-Brice Nordquist, Syracuse University
