White, The Fire in the Flint, and Persistent Struggle.Embattled Home Fronts is an inquiry into the highly conflicted US American experience of World War I as it plays itself out in the diverse body of novelistic works to which it has given rise and by which it has been, in turn, shaped and commemorated. As such, this book naturally concerns itself with the formal aspects of artistic war representation. But rather than merely endeavoring to illustrate how American writers from various backgrounds chose to depict World War I, the present work seeks to uncover the particular ideologies and political practices that inform these representational choices. To this end, Embattled Home Fronts examines both canonized and marginalized US American World War I novels within the context of contemporaneous debates over shifting class, gender, and race relations. The book contends that American literary representations of the Great War are shaped less by universal insights into modern society’s self-destructiveness than by concerted efforts to fashion class-, gender-, and race-specific experiences of warfare in ways that stabilize and heighten political group identities. In moving beyond the customary focus on ironic war representations, Embattled Home Fronts illustrates that the representational and ideological battles fought within American World War I literature not only shed light on the emergence of powerful identity-political concepts such as the New Woman and the New Negro, but also speak to the reappearance of utopian, communitarian, and social protest fictions in the early 1930's. This study Embattled Home Fronts provides a new understanding of the relationship between war literature and home front politics that should be of interest to students and scholars working from a variety of disciplines and perspectivesCosterus ;new ser., v. 179.American fiction20th centuryHistory and criticismAmerican literature20th centuryPolitical aspectsAmerican literature20th centurySocial aspectsWorld War, 1914-1918Literature and the warPolitical aspectsUnited StatesWorld War, 1914-1918Literature and the warSocial aspectsUnited StatesElectronic books.American fictionHistory and criticism.American literaturePolitical aspects.American literatureSocial aspects.World War, 1914-1918Literature and the warPolitical aspectsWorld War, 1914-1918Literature and the warSocial aspects813.5209Piep Karsten H(Karsten Helge),1968-972960MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454126403321Embattled home fronts2213568UNINA03505 am 22008173u 450 991076582670332120190329194920.01-135-78380-21-135-78381-00-203-60687-61-280-05559-60-203-50728-210.4324/9780203507285 (CKB)1000000000252825(EBL)183077(OCoLC)437056331(SSID)ssj0000306613(PQKBManifestationID)11230113(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000306613(PQKBWorkID)10299137(PQKB)10915671(MiAaPQ)EBC183077(OCoLC)252897408(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/38034(EXLCZ)99100000000025282520180331d2004 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrPower to teach learning through practice /Wendy RobinsonTaylor & Francis2004London ;Portland, Or. :Woburn Press,2004.1 online resource (169 p.)The Woburn education series,1462-2076Description based upon print version of record.0-7130-4047-5 0-7130-0227-1 Includes bibliographical references and index.Book Cover; Title; Contents; Tables; Acknowledgements; Abbreviations; Introduction; Teaching: Art, Craft or Science?; The Teacher as Trainer; Learning Through Practice I Bridging the Theoretical Divide: Masters and Mistresses of Method; Learning Through Practice II Model and Demonstration Schools; Learning Through Practice III Evaluating Student Teachers' 'Power to Teach'; Towards a Theory of Teaching; Bibliography; IndexThis book illustrates hitherto unexamined connections between the present state of teacher education in the UK and past models of practice.
