Some of its foundational struggles are still being lived out today. English is characterized as a ‘boundary’ subject, active in dialogue across a number of imagined borders, especially those between academic and non-specialized readerships. While the subject discipline maintains strong pedagogic principles, many of its principles and values are obscure or even invisible to students and potential students. The book cross-fertilizes the study of English as a subject with the analysis of selected literary texts read as pedagogic parables. It concludes with a call for a return to the subject’s pedagogic roots. .Literature—PhilosophyEducationLiterary Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/812000Education, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O00000Literature—Philosophy.Education.Literary Theory.Education, general.820.711Knights Benauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut710070BOOK9910255067203321Pedagogic Criticism2112804UNINA
