Opis

This book demonstrates the power of poetry and the ways in which academics can utilize poetry to go beyond the scholarly realm and create works of art which, unlike a traditional academic work, problematize and question reality rather than simply describe it. 

Recenzje

Angelo Letizia utilizes poetic inquiry as a mechanism to bolster democracy and ultimately re-envision governance in imaginative ways. I can’t remember the last time I was pressed in my thinking to reconsider assumptions and norms and to contemplate and reflect on possibilities.

 -Pamela L. Eddy, Associate Provost for Faculty Affairs and Development and Professor, Higher Education, College of William and Mary

Teaching the skills of citizenship and social responsibility is a critical issue of our time. Letizia examines the philosophy and practice of poetry in education as a form of authentic democratic participation that can build a more inclusive and just society.

 

-Richard Siegesmund, Professor Emeritus, Northern Illinois University
