Studying Fiction provides a clear rationale alongside ideas and
methods for teaching literature in schools from a cognitive
linguistic perspective. Written by experienced linguists, teachers
and researchers, it offers an overview of recent studies on reading
and the mind, providing a detailed guide to concepts such as
attention, knowledge, empathy, immersion, authorial intention,
characterisation and social justice. The book synthesises research
from cognitive linguistics in an applied way so that teachers and
those researching English in education can consider ways to
approach literary reading in the classroom. Each chapter: draws on
the latest research in cognitive stylistics and cognitive poetics;
discusses a range of ideas related to the whole experience of
conceptualising teaching fiction in the classroom and enacting it
through practice; provides activities and reflection exercises for
the practitioner; encourages engagement with important issues such
as social justice, emotion and curriculum design. Together with
detailed suggestions for further reading and a guide to available
resources, this is an essential guide for all secondary English
teachers as well as those teaching and researching in primary and
undergraduate phases.
