Literary Knowing and the Making of English Teachers engages in a meaningful dialogue with longstanding debates surrounding knowledge and knowing in the English language. This book delves into the intricate relationship between literature and the formation of English teachers, specifically examining the impact of their school teaching experiences on their professional knowledge and identities. Through a series of vignettes featuring the voices of early career English teachers, the authors offer insightful reflections on their professional learning journey. The authors, with their diverse disciplinary backgrounds, explore the complexities of knowledge and knowing in English, raising important questions such as how English teachers navigate competing curriculum demands, comprehend literary knowledge within a neoliberal context, and determine the core English knowledge that students should acquire. Drawing upon a substantial longitudinal research project, the authors shed light on what English teachers perceive as the essence of their work, the ways in which they integrate their disciplinary training into their teaching practices, and the ways in which their understandings of literary practice are challenged and reimagined within the classroom. This groundbreaking work is a must-read for scholars and postgraduate students specializing in teacher education, English education, literary studies, and curriculum studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 630g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367618636\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Larissa McLean Davies,Brenton Doecke,Philip Mead,Wayne Sawyer,Lyn Yates","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104658125050,"sku":"9780367618636","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1664571286970_book.jpg?v=1664716633","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/literary-knowing-and-the-making-of-english-teachers-the-role-of-literature-in-shaping-english-teachers-professional-knowledge-and-identities-9780367618636","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
