The essays, research studies, and pedagogical examples in this book
provide a window into the embodied dimensions of literacy and a
toolbox for interpreting, building on, and inquiring into the range
of ways people communicate and express themselves as literate
beings. The contributors investigate and reflect on the
complexities of embodied literacies, honoring literacy learners and
teachers as they holistically engage with texts in complex
sociopolitical, historical, and cultural contexts. Considering
these issues within a multiplicity of education spaces and literacy
events inside and outside of institutional contexts, the book
offers a fresh lens and rhetoric with which to address literacy
education policies, giving readers a discursive repertoire
necessary to develop and defend responsive curricula within an
increasingly high-stakes, standardized schooling climate.
