Focusing on a key area of debate within the world of secondary
English, the 'knowledge-based curriculum', this book explores in
detail the question of knowledge in the teaching of English in
secondary schools, drawing on specific concrete cases and a range
of academic theories. Knowledge in English also investigates how to
teach both facts and skills through the required texts to produce a
balanced educational experience. Elliott brings together classic
texts with contemporary knowledge and viewpoints to critically
examine teaching in the English literature classroom, and situates
them within the broader cultural and political context. The book
includes discussions on race and gender in texts, Shakespeare and
his influence, facts and emotions in poetry, and reading
experiences. Knowledge in English is a foundational and accessible
guide for researchers, practitioners, teacher educators and
teachers around the world. It is a valuable resource for those
involved in the English curriculum to keep the subject relevant and
useful to students in the contemporary classroom.
