Teaching Literature is an indispensable guidebook for all teachers
of English and American literature in higher education. Drawing on
40 years of international teaching experience, author Elaine
Showalter inspires instructors to make their classroom practice as
intellectually exciting as their research. Showalter's wide-ranging
reflections address practical, theoretical, and methodological
issues. She starts out by describing the anxieties of teaching
literature and by outlining the major theories and methods
circulating in the field. She then goes on to look separately at
teaching drama, fiction, poetry, and theory, and to explore ways to
teach teaching. Finally, she investigates the moral issues involved
in teaching, and the practical ethics of handling touchy subjects,
from sexuality to suicide. Examples from real classes and careers
are cited throughout, generating an unusual degree of authenticity
and immediacy.
