The authors consider reading in all of its richness as they explore readers' relationships with diverse textual and digital forms. This edited volume is divided into three sections: Theory, Practice, and Politics. The first provides insights into ways of seeing, thinking, and conceptualizing the experience of reading. The second features a variety of individual and social practices of reading. The third explores the political and ethical aspects of the reading experience, raising questions about the role that reading plays in democracy and civic participation. With contributions from multidisciplinary scholars from around the world, this book provides provocative insights into what it means to be a reader reading in and across various social, cultural, and political contexts. Its unifying theme of the reader's experience of reading is put into dialogue with theories, practices, and politics, making this a rewarding read for graduate students, faculty, researchers, and librarians working across a range of academic fields. 606 $aReading, Psychology of 606 $aReading$xPsychological aspects$vCongresses 606 $aReading$xSocial aspects$vCongresses 606 $aReading$xPolitical aspects$vCongresses 610 $aReading 610 $aLanguage Arts & Disciplines 615 0$aReading, Psychology of. 615 0$aReading$xPsychological aspects 615 0$aReading$xSocial aspects 615 0$aReading$xPolitical aspects 676 $a418.4019 702 $aRothbauer$b Paulette M. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155156603321 996 $aPlotting the Reading Experience$92174799 997 $aUNINA
