{"product_id":"9781041101161","title":"Living Literature","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis bold and timely book challenges the recent and worrying decline of English Literature A Level and presents a set of cardinal principles that should underpin successful teaching and learning in the subject.Expert contributors make the case that English Literature at A Level is in danger of losing touch with its distinctive and living character as it has evolved over time and present a radical, democratic reaffirmation of the core principles of the subject. This reaffirmation underlines a commitment to textual knowledge and personal engagement in Literature.Living Literature: Sharing Meaning and Experience in the A Level Classroom begins by tracing the history of how English Literature A Level has reached its current state. It then offers thirteen fascinating personal reflections on the teaching of individual texts in the context of that situation, twelve from a range of teachers across the country at different points in their careers, and one from a recent student. It concludes with a joint statement on the rethinking that is essential if the subject is firmly to re-establish its own distinctive place in the curriculum.Teachers of English Literature at every stage of their career will find this an essential, urgent read, as will policy makers and researchers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Richard Jacobs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54149164990782,"sku":"9781041101161","price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/files\/9781041101161.jpg?v=1787148062","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781041101161","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
