Description: If You Teach It, They Will Read by John V. MacLean Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description To teach literature is to discuss the eternal questions that human beings have juggled in all ages and in all places. This book helps to present those discussions in terms that resonate with todays students. Publisher Description What does it mean to teach a poem, novel or play? Surely it is about lessons in comprehension and improvements in language facility, but what does literature teach us beyond literacy? Students can read substantive literature for what its authors intended: an insight into the human condition. Students, even those who appear indifferent, struggle with questions of right and wrong, good and evil, love and loss, self-interest and self-sacrifice. Using literature he has used with his students, MacLean insists that asking the right questions, discussing ideas that still matter, will show students that others have wrestled with the same issues, expressing that struggle in timeless stories. For the teacher of literature, the student of literature, the lover of literature, this book is a reminder of why, in the words of Maya Angelou, we stumble and fall, and how, miraculously, we can stand up. What more important lesson is there? Author Biography With degrees in English literature from Fordham University and the University of Oxford, John MacLean has been a mill hand, merchant seaman, church sacristan and assistant district attorney, all of which has helped him teach high school English for twenty-eight years.
